Listened to the audio book, read by the author.

I really really liked this book. I think it’s helpful advice not just in your marriage but in any meaningful relationship in your life.

I might need to invest in a workbook (if there is one) to really dig into the put into practice the contents of this book. But I look forward to exploring that with my husband to make our marriage even stronger.

Definitely not what I was expecting. The whole concept behind the (many $$) books written by Gary Chapman is that each of us communicate love in different ways. He provides questionnaires in which spouses can figure out in which type of "language" they experience love. The other spouse then is to attempt to provide their mate with this type of love. The five languages are
1. Gifts
2. Quality time
3. Verbal affirmation
4. Acts of service
5. Physical touch

I was way suprised by the book's Christian me

Wow! This book was amazing. I would recommend it to EVERYONE. I feel like my marriage is really strong, and yet I still gained a lot from reading it. It really helped me to understand myself. Although I never experienced the "Falling in Love" phase that he discusses, the language part still rings true. For me it's all about time. ...more
