 Thank you, Martin. Within this text, I found valuable fuel for personal strength and perspective. I have shared several copies with friends who were going through difficult times with their relationships. A must read. T. Nelson

He has made an impact on our community. He is so on point for what our society needs today. He stresses the significance of Jesus's nature---for us to be fully alive is the greatest gift to God.  Michele McMahon  

What People Are Saying...

This is an easy-to-read book written by a priest/psychotherapist. Padovani's chapter "Change" is particularly good. I found myself thinking, "Hey, is he talking to me?" many times as I read. Get it---you won't be sorry.  PHgil

 These are books you read more than once and save for future use and reference. I gave some as gifts to my younger relatives.  Benny Legaspe Sr. 

Healing Wounded Emotions is awesome! Padovani takes you on a journey through the many emotions we deal with and helps us understand them like never before. Great book!

Linda Parsley

A great book for anyone alive--chapters like "Anger," "Guilt," "Self-Criticism," "Compassion," all from a therapist who has helped thousands of clients for many, many years!  Anne S.

Save Your Relationship!

The author has the touch of a poet. Such a good image of what we all want the church to be. He cares as a person for the humanity and the heart of those who look for him.  Anthony T. Padovano

Save Your Relationship!

Save Your Relationship!

Save Your Relationship!

This is the best book of its kind. It should be mandatory reading for all couples BEFORE getting married. However, this book is particularly effective for people who have been married for many years and have lost their connection. Jack Ireland

Save Your Relationship!

Save Your Relationship!

These books are a blend of Christ's message and modern psychology.

Everyone will find these books extremely helpful, healing, and insightful in their emotional and spiritual lives as well as their relationships and families.
