El Lenguaje del Amor

«¿Por qué no puede comprender cómo me siento?», se pregunta una esposa desesperada después de otro intento fallido de comunicarse con su esposo. La frustración de no poder comunicarnos de manera significativa afecta no sólo a nuestro matrimonio, sino que también a nuestras amistades, relaciones de padres e hijos y relaciones profesionales. El Lenguaje del amor explora las «palabras emotivas transmitidas por medio de imágenes», un método consagrado por el tiempo que nos permite salvar las brechas de comunicación. Las imágenes verbales son un lenguaje de amor que todos podemos aprender a hablar. No exigen ninguna creatividad ni inteligencia especial, sino tan sólo un corazón bien dispuesto. Utilizando ejemplos verídicos de la vida real, Gary Smalley y el Dr. John Trent explican cómo las imágenes verbales nos ayudan a atrapar la atención de la gente, lograr que nuestros mensajes sean memorables, abrir la puerta a una mayor intimidad y aportar un cambio duradero. Esta edición revisada incluye un capítulo que aplica las imágenes verbales a nuestra vida espiritual, así como una guía de estudios compuesta por 12 sesiones para grupos pequeños, parejas o individuos.
