Love and War - just what I needed to read about marriage

Don't be scared off by the title! Love and War by John and Stasi Eldredge is out just in time for Valentine's Day. And what else could Love and War be about other than marriage! I mean where else do the terms love and war work so well together? lol. I love my marriage, but sometimes you want to call war because of disagreements. I'll admit I wasn't expecting to get much out of this book. We've (Mr. C & I) been together for a long time, so I've read a lot of marriage counselling books over the years. But to my surprise I was sobbing by the the end of chapter one. Th...

Sense and Sensibility Insight Edition

Are you a fan of Jane Austen? I know I am ever since Anne Hathaway played Jane Austen in the movie, Becoming Jane. It's amazing how movies can bring an old book back to life. I remember hearing of this book when I was younger, but really didn't give it a second glance until the past year or so. It's a classic I know! SO, when I saw that there was a version coming out of this book I jumped at the chance to read it. It is the Sense and Sensibility Insight Edition put out by Bethany House. I had to laugh because I brought this book with to the dentist the other day and I had ...

a new publisher,a new book & new giveaway! :)

So I found a new publisher! Their name is Revival Nation Publishing. I am always happy to see Christian publishers coming up, and as always I'm curious as to what they're putting out! I contacted the publisher and got a copy of a few books that I'm excited to read! I also recieved some copies to share with my readers, which I'm thrilled about! So this month's giveaway will be for a children's book! Which I'm quite thrilled about because what a better way to encourage our children is to read to them and to have great books for them to read from! So onto the book! Jellybean b...

The Respect Dare

Posted by Amydeanne on uncategorized

orangebookcovercropped Do you respect your husband?

Coming from a female driven family I have a hard time with this; I mean not like we as women don’t have a hard time with this in general, but the longer I’ve been married, the longer I realize I need to work more at this. There are a lot of times I don’t think I’ve done anything, yet can’t seem to crack the male code.

I was thrilled when I saw the ad on facebook for this book and had to get a copy right away! With movies such as fireproof coming out last year I thought this was an excellent addition to further in the maintence of marriages. So I waited for it to come, and let me tell you I was not disappointed!

I’ll be posting on this for the next few weeks to encourage you all to improve your marriages. Whether you are married for one year or forty-one years I think it’s important for us to work on our marriages and so I hope you’ll join me on this journey as I share some of my thoughts over the next month or so on it.

Curious about the book?

Ephesians 5:33 in the Bible says that wives shall always respect their husbands, but most women struggle with this concept. Are you one of them?

The truth is that women get married with dreams, hopes and aspirations that are often never fulfilled. More than half of marriages end in divorce in the United States, and many women that stay married are unhappy.

The Respect Dare is a forty-day devotional guide that will take away the mystery that is keeping you from speaking the language of respect with your husband. It provides real life examples from women who have developed closer relationships with God and their husbands. In it, you will learn:

● How to build confidence;
● Methods to positively handle conflicts;
● Keys to better communication;
● How to develop a more intimate connection with your spouse;
● Ways to deepen your relationship with God;
● And much more!

Learn the language of respect and truly connect to the man you married with The Respect Dare.
