Love & Respect by Emerson Eggerichs {Book Review}

After two months of marriage the church my husband I were attending at the time was promoting Love & Respect by Emerson Eggerichs. We attended the the DVD video series offered and was later lent the book to read. I would say it did us both a lot of good because here we are standing strong four years later. The basic premise of this book is based of the Bible verse Ephesians 5:33 which says, “Each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband” (NIV).
Over the span of the four years that I’ve been married I’ve read a lot of different marriage books and none I’ve liked quite as much as this one. Love & Respect hits issues married couples often face head on. When reading through the book you’ll learn about the cycles that tend to tear couples apart like the crazy cycle and learn ways to break them through the energizing cycle. You can read this book alone but I see much more impact coming from it if you take the time to read it together.
I would encourage every married couple to pick up this book. I know personally for my husband and I after going through a lot more of life together are going to start reading this book again this year. It’s a wonderful book to go back to that will continue to strength your marriage for a lifetime. It will completely change your life and your marriage!

Whether you enjoy Max Lucado’s other works or are completely new to this well known christian author, I’m quite sure most people will enjoy this newly revised insightful New King James Version Life Lessons Study Bible.

This Bible takes a lot from Max’s well known books old and latest such as his latest release, Outlive Your Life.
The new year of 2011 has just begun and I’ve started going through the two year Bible reading plan found in this study Bible but there are also ninety day and one year plans as well! Just by reading through the first few days planned out I’ve noticed that there’s plenty of spiritual food for thought from the introduction, added lessons, application, observation, and inspiration found through out this study Bible and I am quite enjoying it!
This Bible is available in hardcover and Leathersoft cover making it perfect for gifting to brand new and well seasoned followers of God of all ages. This Bible is also a perfect companion for Max Lucado’s Outlive Your Life DVD-Based Study.

God’s Promises for Women of Faith by Jack Countryman {Book Review}
God’s Promises for Women of Faith is a book I will constantly be coming back to. It’s personally taken up a permanent place right along side my Bible. How awesome that it’s small enough yet packed full of such big things that it can slip right inside my the outer pocket of my Bible cover!
You’ll find that this little book is packed with many powerful & encouraging scriptures that will bring many blessings and conviction to it’s reader. This book is broken up into many parts by topics such as those that will encourage us to grow in our faith. I especially loved the section of the book that features many well known woman of the Bible such as Ruth, Mary, Sarah, Hannah, and more.
This book is perfect for daily scripture readings or if you are looking for a quick reference on many topics such as contentment, adversity, and resting in Him to name just a few.
At the end of this book their is a section for you to personally add scriptures that stand out to you and a place for prayer request.
I wouldn’t hesitate to purchase this book for a friend with no doubt that it would be cherished. I feel this book would make the perfect gift for women from young to old traveling in their own many different walks of life.
