Love Unending by Becky Thompson

This is a book to help young mothers reignite their marriage after being consumed with caring for little ones and focused on their children’s needs.  It is a pleasant mix of marriage advice and personal down- to- earth stories from the author.  The book is a 21 day plan to a more fulfilling marriage.  Each chapter deals with a facet of daily married life.  For example one chapter is titled:  Greet Lovingly.  The author asks us to examine how we greet our husbands when they come home each evening.  What I liked about this book is that Ms Thompson selected areas that one might not realize affects a marriage as deeply as it does.  Does it really matter how we greet our husband?  But in each idea that she presents she brings in her personal life story to illustrate how important each chapter is to making your marriage what you long for it to be.  Then she gives you a challenge.  It’s like homework.  Something you do after you’ve read the chapter.  At the end of each chapter there are lines for writing down your husband’s reactions, how you felt and how the “experiment” went.  Throughout the book she reminds us over and over to start each day new.  This gives fresh hope to every marriage not matter what state you may find it in.  This is a very positive book!  Easy to read, easy to understand yet shares profound thoughts and encouraging throughout the entire text.  This 21 day challenge in book form is definitely worth the effort and doable.


I received this book free from the publishers.
