Book Reviews of The Love Dare
Book Review: The Love Dare Book, as featured in Fireproof movie
Summary: 5 Stars
Fireproof: what a movie! The Love Dare Book [what a book!] is a 40+ day program for husbands and wives who need help in their marriages. It is real and gets to the heart of the matter: which is love, loving each other, the outworking of that, and the need for a relationship with the One who created love and marriage [God]. Frankly, I believe that singles should study this program before entering marriage. Also, husbands and wives who have great marriages might still be able to "spice things up a bit". I haven't needed to apply it yet, but I'm aware of the possibility of combining a showing of the dvd plus a 40+ day use of the Love Dare Book as a ministry tool for others both before marriage, and for those who are facing difficulties or challenges in their marriages. Like the movie, this is a most incredible book. They both have the potential to really transform lives. Brilliant!Book Review: Incredible wisdom
Summary: 5 Stars
I watched the movie with my wife last night. I can totally relate to the movie, and so I bought "the Love Dare"
today and read all 198 pages. As one reviewer said, this book isn't about changing your spouse, it's about changing you and making yourself a better partner. And because love is such an incredible change agent, there
is a good chance that your spouse will respond to your loving them. When I read the book, my focus was on God changing me first. If all you want to do is change your spouse, then you really miss the point of the book.
I haven't tried any of the dares yet, but God has already changed my heart by opening my eyes to how I have failed to truly demonstrate unconditional love towards my spouse. Even if God doesn't change my spouse, He has already changed me with the incredible insight and wisdom presented in this book.
Book Review: Take "The Love Dare!"
Summary: 5 Stars
I got this book because my wife and I saw the movie, "Fireproof." At first, I thought it would be some hastily-thrown-together fluff to take advantage of the movie's story line. Not so. This is a real self-study program, a scripture-based tuneup, not just for marriage but for life. If you are serious about improving your own approach to the two most important relationships in your life (with God and with your spouse), get this book and do the exercises. Take them seriously, and make the commitments, and I promise you great blessings. After my wife began to notice a change in me, I confessed that I was taking the "Love Dare." A couple of weeks later, I found out she had gotten her own copy and was also taking the dare. This has been a tremendous blessing in our marriage. Thanks to the authors, and thanks to Heavenly Father.Book Review: Do the Dare
Summary: 5 Stars
Hands down this is one of the best books I've read. I received one from my church, waited several months until my wife "forgot" about it. And then she got love dared. When I began the dare I thought it was just going to be 40 days of gimicky stuff to make my wife smile every now and then. After all I didn't have a marriage that was on the rocks. But, it is so much more. This isn't just some "improve your marraige in 40 steps program". It challenges YOU to do things for yourself. It challenges YOU to re-connect (or improve your connection) with God.
So if you've read this far; you're probably wondering, "if I received this book how am I writing a review". Because I believe in The Love Dare so strongly I bought the book for two people who I felt needed it. And I'll keep buying more!
Book Review: The Love Dare - a must read for any married person
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is fabulous! I actually already have a copy and purchased 2 as a wedding gift. I wrote on the card that this book will improve any marriage, whether it's a good one or if it needs a little work. I honestly believe that! I have noticed a huge difference in my marriage while following this book. It's not always easy to keep up with a dare a day, but it is minimal reading (3 pages or so)per dare which helps to fit in busy schedules. This book just really gets you thinking about your spouse and making them feel special. In my experience, it's very rewarding because I'm focusing on how I can make my marriage it's best and it is motivating to my spouse. He notices the effort and wants to reciprocate, and he has no idea I'm even reading this book or what the book is about.
