It makes sense

We live in an imperfect world with imperfect people. We can grow up in dysfunctional homes where we learn a variety of principles - some that work and others that hinder how we do life, leaving our emotional lives in some state of arrested development. As we grow older, we may look like an adult and operate in an adult world but some of our thinking and reactions to situations show an adolescent level of understanding and behaviour.

Cloud and Townsend identify healthy biblical principles to help people move from an immature outlook locked in a state of arrested development to a mature one. Not only do they provide principles but they also show how these principles play out in real life.

I know that I now look at my relationships in a completely different light.

Helpful or not? Depends

I can understand why the previous reviewers shared very diverse opinion of the book. The supporters focused on how well the authors made use of their professional knowledge and writting skill to discuss eight godly principles on solving twelve key areas of life's problem. The opposers primarily complained that it's too shallow and did not help at all. IMHO, this book did point to the direction of help or even salvation, which is God. Those who know God well and just need a little advice or hint will find the book useful. However, it is not the solution itself and so those who want a shortcut and without a solid faith are disappointed for sure. Nevertheless, as a believer in Christ and a book lover, I am obliged to comment that it is a relatively good book of its kind. Recommended!
