The Love and Respect Experience By Dr. Emerson Eggrichs

My complimentary book to review for Thomas Nelson Publishers The Love & Respect Experience is one that my husband and I together will enjoy for many years to come. It is a couple's devotional book that is especially written so the husband will enjoy it as much as his wife even though men are usually not as keen on doing devotions with their wife as the wife who loves the idea. It is written by Dr. Emerson Eggerichs who is very skillful at writing a devotion that both men and women will benefit from and grow in the Lord together. It is not a book to bring a couple together in a romantic way but rather a way for them to build their marriage spiritually. The devotions allow them to grow closer to The Lord. They have scripture, insights, prayers and action points. The content is wonderful as it guides each spouse to a greater appreciation of their unique gifts and talents while adding patience for their shortcomings as you see this special person God chose for you to spend your life loving. I don't usually say much or anything about the cover of a book, but I would be remiss it I didn't comment on the beautiful leatherlike cover that is both masculine and appealing and easier to read. The cover also lends its self to making a lovely gift. Across the board this book scored high in my opinion.
