Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for the free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. My opinion was not affected by the free copy.

I requested this book because it was something I really needed help with, and getting a Biblical perspective on the topic made the book even more appealing. This is definitely a book I'll be buying once it's available; for me, I would want something physical so I could flip back to certain chapters or sections. I'm already wanting to re-read this.

I like what the author was saying about bitterness in this book, and how a lot of relationship problems stem from that. I also like him discussing how we talk to others as well as how others talk to us, and how we can speak with more kindness to each other while also speaking the truth in love. And he did touch on something that I know I need to work on: being a part of a community by being in a small group.

Working on earthly relationships is a life-long process, but I think the author did a good job of showing how we can look to the Bible for guidance on how to do better.

This book really wasnt how I was expecting it to be, in a positive way. It's beautifully written. I took time out after reading a few pages to sit and reflect. I will be putting this to practice in my everyday life.

James Hilt's book How to Have a Better Relationship with Anybody provides solid, biblical counsel for anyone looking to improve relationships. Hilt deals with topics like rooting out bitterness, forgiveness and offering kindness to offenders, and clothing yourself with humility. The author weaves together real-life stories and examples with biblical truth on each of the topics.

Take your time to prayerfully read through each chapter, taking time for personal reflection and inventories and asking the Holy Spirit to effect change in you. if you take it seriously, you're bound to see real transormation in yourself that will lead to stronger and better relationships with others. This is a book I highly recommend because it's practical, biblically-sound, and encouraging even as it corrects and guides.
