Reviews for When Love Hurts: 10 Principles to Transform Difficult Relationships
“When Love Hurts helped me through a difficult time in my marriage by giving me tools to detach from my wife, speak my truth, set boundaries, and to let go when things didn’t happen exactly the way I needed them to. I have gained insight into myself, my wife, and our relationship. I highly recommend the Christian relationship help this product offers.”

“My dad was the alcoholic and my mom the enabler. I had tried to change them for all my life. Yet, here I was, a 24-year old adult, still doing the same thing! I felt guilty, responsible, and angry. When Love Hurts helped me see that it wasn’t my job to fix my parents; it was my job to live my own life. It gave me the ability to have a relationship with them without feeling responsible for them.”

“There is so much my husband and I learned from this book! For me, two of the biggest principles are to detach from the difficult person and to look at my part and what I can change. I didn’t think it was possible to feel God’s peace and live my life normally, but I was able to not take everything so personally and even treat the difficult person with respect and caring. This book is extremely practical. I have already referred back to it many times and know I will continue to do so. Anyone dealing with a difficult relationship who knows what it feels like to have love hurt needs to read this!”

“Karla knows what to do when love hurts. Denise and I have five adopted kids. Their names are ADD, ADHD, Bipolar, Autistic, and Marijuana. They are all young adults and the guilt piles on along with the desire to be there for them by bailing out the water in their lifeboats while they drill new holes in different places and then blame us for their sinking lives. This has been the biggest challenge in thirty years of pastoral ministry. When Love Hurts helped us more than any other book outside of the Bible.”

“Throughout my separation from my husband, my loved ones kept telling me to ‘Let go and to let God.’ When Love Hurts presented me with a pragmatic approach to letting go and letting God through a practical application of the 10 Principles. Although my marriage was not salvageable, I continue to reference this material to ensure that I deal with my ex-spouse in a healthy and godly manner for my sake and the sake of my children.”

“There wasn’t a day that went by that my heart didn’t break over my adult daughter. My attempts to fix her were ruining our relationship and making me crazy. When Love Hurts helped me let go of the guilt, the obsession, and the control and replace them with acceptance, respect for my daughter’s right to make her own choices, the ability to live my own life, and trust in God. If there is anyone in your life that you want to fix or change, this book will help you stop!”
