Summary: 5 Stars
wish someone could have given me this book about 22 years ago. Our marrige would have been even better.Book Review: A "MUST-READ"
Summary: 5 Stars
The "Love Dare" is a must read for anybody who is or has ever been married. If you read it and take seriously what you read, it will cannot help but strengthen your marriage, or move any relationship to the next higher level. It will be tough, but i twill be worth it!Book Review: A Couple That Prays Together, Stays Together
Summary: 5 Stars
Alex and Stephen Kendrick do a fantastic job at keeping the reader captivated throughout the text. The contents of their book influenced my writing of A Greater Prayer: A How-To Manual on Making the Lord's Prayer Your Very Own. I believe that whatever your ministry, including that of being an exeplary spouse, this book will open doors.Book Review: A Helpful Handbook For Strengthening A Marriage
Summary: 5 Stars
Love Dare is a handbook that I think would benefit any marriage. After seeing the movie, "Fireproof" I was curious to check out the book that was used in the movie. It gives a scriptural basis for 40 practical things to do to strengthen your marriage. The idea is to do one of the challenges each day and then of course continue to integrate them into your life. Some I found to be hard, others easy and most we already do. I especially liked the 20 questions listed in the back to help me get to know my spouse better and assist me in discovering his needs. I recommend this to any husband or wife. I think anyone could improve their marriage if they followed the suggestions in this book.Book Review: A Helpful Place to Begin
Summary: 4 Stars
This little book follows "FireProof" the movie, and provides a helpful journal and activity book for couples. Or, if only one person wants to be the catalyst for meaningful change (as in the movie) this book is helpful for that one person.
The success of "FireProof" means this journal should sell very well. So if you order this journal (please do!) what would be the logical next steps for you to take? After working on your marriage for 40 days, what should you be doing for the next 40 years?
I'd recommend "The Soul-Mate Marriage" by authors David & Lisa Frisbie. It's brand-new, releasing right now, and is a positive, readable place to start after doing the Love Dare program. Dr. and Mrs. Frisbie have been teaching, speaking and writing about marriage for more than 20 years; at least seven of their books are currently right here on Amazon.
In addition, look for books by Gary Chapman or Kevin Leman. Both of these authors have helpful titles about marriage and family issues. Both can guide you to the next steps after doing Love Dare.
To sum up: this "Love Dare" journal is an EXCELLENT place to begin!! Once you're past the beginning stages, try the "Soul-Mate Marriage" next.
