”This is a compassionate and courageous book that has both stretched and deepened my understanding of what God intends for our good. I cannot think of a better gift for people today who are being targeted by so many unhelpful ideas than this clear–sighted and compact book on ‘aspects of love’ which God both plans and delivers.“Simon Manchester(Former Minister, St Thomas’ Anglican Church, Sydney, Australia)”This is such a good book! Here is a pastor’s heart, rooted deeply in scripture, informed by careful reading of scholarship, earthed in the realities of the lives of men and women.It is wide–ranging in its scope, balanced in its judgements on uncertain matters, always warm and helpful. I commend it warmly.“Christopher Ash(Writer–in–Residence, Tyndale House, Cambridge)”Trained first as a physician and now entrusted with the care of souls, the author is uniquely placed to address matters healthy and holy.  Providing both diagnosis and cure, he shows how an understanding of God’s love for us lays the foundation for loving and being loved.“Alistair Begg(Founder, Truth for Life)”Here is realistic, relevant and refreshing application of clear biblical truths from an author who knows the grace received in gospel and the mess and angst of daily life.“Peter Dickson(Regional Team Leader in Scotland, UCCF: The Christian Unions)”… here is a warm–hearted, unapologetically biblical guide to navigating the minefield of human relationships. Its refreshing honesty and candid application of the Bible’s teaching to the real issues behind a host of contemporary questions make it stand out as a key resource for Christian people, at every stage of life.“David & Heather Jackman(Past staff members, The Proclamation Trust)”William Philip is one of our best Bible teachers in the UK, and this is a wonderfully helpful book. Excellent on the biblical text, but also full of warm, pastoral common sense, it will be enormous help to us all in navigating the minefields of relationships. A book to get, read, use, give away and be thankful for!“Paul Levy(Minister, International Presbyterian Church, Ealing, London)
