Excellent Devotional for Husbands

When I saw that there was a devotional geared toward men about marriage I was actually excited about the idea.  My wife and I had taken the Love and Respect course at church so I was already familiar with Dr. Eggerichs ideas. “The Love and Respect Experience; A Husband-Friendly Devotional that Wives Truly Love”  is written by Emerson Eggerichs founder of Love and Respect Ministries.

This devotional is not set up the same as a traditional devotional.  Instead of a daily devotional this is a weekly devotional.    Included with each devotional is a set of discussion questions that brings a better understanding to the teaching. The devotions are short, but direct, attacking the heart of both the husband and the wife.

This format, while the text is geared towards the man, is great for taking a year to work on your relationship in a way that isn’t so demanding.  The best way to use this book is to have each person review the information, answer the questions, and then come together and share your thoughts for the week.

As a added note this book would make an attractive gift as it is bound, not as a hard cover, but with imitation leather, making this book even that much more attractive.

I received this book free from the publisher through the www.BookSneeze.com, book review bloggers program. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
