Love and Respect: The love she most desires and the respect he desperately needs – by Dr. Emerson Eggerichs has hit the age old marital nail on the head with its title. Before I read it at first I took it to be just another motivational / spiritual book off the shelf but only after just a few pages I realized my fault.
Dealing with a very simple approach to one of the most complex marital problems, Dr. Eggerichs suggests the “love and respect” therapy. It is also well established that love alone cannot fulfill a relationship, mutual respect is equally vital.
As the author has himself declared this book is meant for people in a marital crisis, spouses headed for divorce, husbands and wives in a second marriage, people wanting to stay happily married, spouses married to unbelievers, divorcees trying to heal, lonely wives, browbeaten husbands, spouses in affairs, victims of affairs, engaged couples, pastors and counselors looking for materials that can save marriages. However I believe this is a must read for all present as well as future couples.
Disclosure: I received this book free of charge from Thomas Nelson Publishers as part of their BookSneeze.com blogger book reviewer program, in exchange for my honest review. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions expressed are my own.
