That We Might Have Joy: Desire, Divinity & Intimate Love
by Jennifer Finlayson-Fife
What if the path to deeper spirituality isn’t through resisting your sexuality—but through more fully embracing it?
For many Latter-day Saints, sexual intimacy is experienced as a pleasant pastime, a bargaining chip, a well of shame, a source of frustration—or even a necessary evil. Far less understood is its potential to be something much more: a source of deep joy, spiritual transcendence, and communion with another soul.
In a culture drawn to quick fixes and surface-level advice, That We Might Have Joy offers something deeper—an honest, in-depth look at how sexual intimacy acts as both diagnosis and cure for what ails modern marriage, and a meaningful invitation to create something richer and more connected. With clarity and compassion, Dr. Jennifer Finlayson-Fife reframes sexuality not as a threat to faith, but a pathway toward it. She shows how sexual intimacy can reveal the truth of a relationship—and how, for those willing to confront that truth, it can become the starting point for something far more soul-sustaining.
That We Might Have Joy is a call to greater integrity—within our marriages, our faith, and ourselves. It invites us to live more honestly, love more deeply, and discover what becomes possible when we heal the division between our spiritual and sexual selves.

True to You: A Therapist's Guide to Stop Pleasing Others and Start Being Yourself
by Kathleen Smith
A Guide to The Theory and Practice of Creating Authentic Relationships
When’s the last time you felt as composed as you portray to your boss, family and friends? If there’s a discord between the two, you’re not alone. Humans are master pretenders—we often seem stronger, calmer and more mature than we really are, while the truth is we’re full of doubts and self-criticism that pushes us to borrow reassurance from friends, beliefs from strangers on the internet, or attention that, in the moment, makes us feel successful, but leaves us totally hollow and burnt out.
True to You is a relatable self-help guide for people who want to learn to live less focused on others’ reactions and more confidently by their own principles. Readers will learn how to:
· Interrupt relationship patterns that keep you stuck.
· Rely less on praise and approval from others.
· Develop a solid sense of self in anxious times.
· Build more authentic and rewarding relationships.
Dr. Smith uses examples from the lives of her therapy clients to explain how we borrow confidence, calmness, and beliefs from our relationships and offers actionable steps and exercises for building a life with your own best-thinking. With a healthy dose of humor, she unpacks the science of our social nature, explaining why we try so hard to be what others want us to be and how we can start living from the inside out. By learning how to be more responsible for yourself, rather than over-responsible for everyone else, you can find the freedom to develop richer relationships, pursue what’s important to you, and feel steadier in this very anxious world.
