"A long and happy marriage." It sounds like the end of a fairy tale--an illusion that modern times have exposed.
And it is, if marriage depends on a constant stream of romantic emotion, or even on copious amounts of time or money. Thank the Lord, none of those are necessary. Two thousand years ago, Paul gave women the key to a successful marriage, and it can be summed up in two words: "unconditional respect." It's not popular. It doesn't sound fair. It can be hard to imagine.
But it works.
Nina Roesner has led countless women through this practical and life-changing journey, and in "The Respect Dare" she offers you the hope that so many others have found. Day by day, true stories and thought-provoking questions will help you apply biblical wisdom to the most important relationship in your life.
Give it forty days. Experience the intimacy God intended and discover what he can do in your heart and in your marriage when you choose to show respect his way.

Everyone who is married wants a great marriage that is deeply connected. If you have a relationship with God as well, you want it to be a triangle marriage. Or if you're single and wanting a guide to a wonderful marriage, this is a wonderful guide.
This book reminded me of the book and movie, The Love Dare (move - Fireproof).
The Respect Dare, each day you have a Bible Scripture to read, a story, and a dare to partake in. The book is about building a deeper, more wonderful connection between you and your husband with the help and guidance of God through the Bible.
All in all I found this to be a good read and a nice challenge to keep up with. I think it would work even better if both spouses kept up with it than used their own imagination after the 40 challenge.
I do recommend this book.
I received this book for review from BookLook Blogger
