Marriage is Work: A review of Love and War Devotional for Couples

 

love-and-war-devotional-210x300 The Love and War Devotional for Couples by John and Stasi Eldrege is simply amazing. The book starts out with "We probably ought to just start here: marriage is fabulously hard." Any married couple and appreciate and agree with these words whether they are newly married or have been for decades.

Marriage is work; plain and simple.

This devotional is broken down into 18 weeks, 5 days per each week. Each day gives a scripture, application, and prayer. At the end of each week there is an exercises designed to stimulate conversation which will in turn inspire closer intimacy with your spouse, there by improving your marriage.

The nice thing about this devotional is it's doable for any couple. Short daily texts with real life application.

John and Stassi Eldredge are not afraid to touch on the difficult issues. Emphasizing the fact that we can not look to each other for love and fulfillment which we can only attain from Christ. These powerful opinions are broken down into short devotionals that easily fit into any schedule. Pick up this devotional, go through it with your spouse. I promise you it will not disappoint, and you never know, you just might learn something about them you didn't know before.

A perfect compliment to their book Love and War or by itself this devotional is a promising help to any marriage.
