Bill and Pam Farrel, bestselling authors of Men Are Like Waffles-Women Are Like Spaghetti, lead husbands and wives through the ten most influential decisions a couple can make to shape a lasting and loving marriage.
Exploring romance, communication, sex, conflict resolution, family, and personalities, the Farrels walk couples through the ten decisions that will:
*turn me and me into "we" *strengthen the foundation of their family *redeem past bad choices and give hope for a solid future *bring balance to roller coaster emotions *create a life together of trust, grace, and understanding
Filled with practical advice, biblical insights, and the Farrels' trademark warmth and wit, this manual is a terrific gift for newlyweds and just as valuable to longtime marriage partners.
I read this quickly because it was comign due at the library, and it took me a long time to pick up. It took me a long time to pick up because of the cover. I know this is nitpicky, but when they put young, attractive, amourous couples on the cover, I equate that with the authors, and often that is not the case. The Farrels in this case were older, more seasoned spoused. They had a lot of great reminders and biblical insights, and also talked a bit about personality. William and I are as different as we could be in some basic personality issues, and it is reassuring to understand why God placed us together, and that neither of us is wrong in our view of the world. (I am now going to say that to myself 200 times...)
My mother gave this book to us as 'Inspiration for the new year'. I've read just a few pages and it is reminding me of the little things I can do to make my husband feel more important to me.
