Customer Reviews for Thomas Nelson Love & Respect: The Love She Most Desires, the Respect He Desperately Needs
Thomas Nelson Love & Respect: The Love She Most Desires, the Respect He Desperately Needs
Dr. Emerson Eggerichs' book, Love & Respect: The Love She Most Desires, the Respect He Desperately Needs, is based on the biblical passage from Ephesians 5:33 (But every husband must love his wife as he loves himself, and wives should respect their husbands - GODS WORD® translation). His premise is that communication between a husband and wife is often frustrated because of the vastly different ways in which men and women perceive love. Women are wired to need unconditional love and men need to feel unconditionally respected. Revitalize the love in your marriage! A Focus on the Family Recommendation; hardcover.

My small group Bible study is going through Love & Respect. Makes sense, but sometimes seems a little heavy handed on the women - unconditional respect is a hard concept to put your mind around.

As a marriage mentor with my wife for seven years, I read many books on marriage. "Love and Respect" is the best of all of them. I bought this copy for neighbors who were moving away.

This book practically captures the essence of Eph5:33 and paints a great picture of what derails marriages and what to do to keep a marriage sane and functional so couples are
working together in a healthy enviroment making it attractive
and desirable and fun to be married.

After 33 years in my first marriage, losing that mate to death and now looking forward to a second marriage, reading this book changed the way I see being married. I'm so looking forward to developing and exercising these principles in my new marriage. What a gift!
My fiance and I both had good first marriages. We read this book together and were inspired by what we read. Our "toolkit" for a successful marriage is now well supplied.

My husband and I discovered this book as we were experiencing a very low point in our marriage of 25 years. The trials of life had really weighed us down and had created habits that were certainly not positive. It is the very first book about marriage that my husband willingly read WITH ME. It brought each of us insight and understanding- allowing us to move off the "crazy cycle" we had created. Each chapter allowed us to realize that we were not alone in our journey through marriage and to discover practical ways to bring changes to the destructive patterns that were disrupting our ability to enjoy each other and the life God had given to us.
We keep the book in a visible place in our bedroom as a reminder of what God has done to transform our lives. We have both recommended the book to numerous couples who have shared their stories of defeat and frustration. In fact, I stand amazed how many times my husband recommends this book to his clients as they come into his office and share with him about the conflicts in their marriges.

While this book had some good points, it was very much one sided. And repetitive. In my opinion, the author came across in his writing in a way that seemed to make women responsible for all problems in a marriage. I read the ENTIRE book thinking that he would eventually shift his view and discuss the responsibilities of men, but he never did. He also seems to believe that he is the ONLY one who figured out that couples want love and respect in a marriage. I would recommend the book Bringing Out the Best in Your Husband/Wife. These books give a fair view of both men and women. It doesn't come across as biased at all. And, the information is very similar.

We've been married 10 years and this book really has had an impact on how we deal with each other day to day. We were doing OK, but now we're doing great! Conflicts are less frequent and less volatile. We're enjoying each other's company more. So many positives! We highly recommend it to couples of all ages.

My husband and I have been married for 19 years. I would say we have a good marriage........however listening, learning and putting into practice the different techniques in this book it has done wonders for our marriage. In the last few weeks, our relationship has reached a new level, I call it "our second honeymoon". Physically, emotionaly and spiritually, the contents and the truth presented in this book will touch you to your very core. Even our children have noticed the difference! Love it! :-)

I ordered Love & Respect on the recommendation of an older friend & am so glad I did! It is a must-read for any married person who wants to better understand their spouse. I loved that it is written by a man giving it a unique perspective that is missing in so many marriage books. Definately recommend!

This has been the BEST marriage book I have ever read. It has been the MOST enlightening. Every couple that plans to get married should read and it should be required reading as part of pre-marital counseling. Thank you and God bless the author for allowing God to use him and shed enlightening wisdom on creating a godly and successful marriage. Now I have to get my husband to read it!:)

My husband and I used this for pre-marital counseling and have used what we learned nearly every day of our marriage. Now we are using it as an invaluable tool to aid in marriage counseling with couples in our church. What a blessing and so right on.
