Great program for a christian marraige The Love Dare is a good book for you and your partner if you both are committed to working the program for 40 days. It can get tough if you lose track along the way, but the content is interesting and useful enough to keep you going.
A great marraige tune up The Love Dare is a really unique book! It's essentially a program that you go through with your partner and it's powerful stuff. Described as a "forty-day guided devotional experience that will lead your heart back to truly loving your spouse while learning more about the design, nature, and source of true love." It may not guaranteed fix a problematic relationship, but it will help you see the good in your partner and what you love about him/her.
The book has forty days of entries that each discuss a unique aspect of love and then offers a dare for you and your spouse. I found some of the dares really easy and others were quite hard. It also has a journal section for you to chart your progress.
It will force you to remember all the things you love about this person. Definitely a good way to sharpen the saw in your relationship and bring two people closer together.
Another book I strongly recommend that my wife and I came across recently and we've really enjoyed because it's given us some outstanding tools for communicating and understanding each other is The Emotional Intelligence Quick BookGreat Challenges for Growing Your Marriage The Love Dare
This book goes along with the movie, Fireproof, which has a Christian marriage theme. The book contains 40 days of Biblical topics and dares for each day. There is a topic, and a reading for each day which includes scripture, a dare, a place to check off when you complete the dare, and some questions about each dare.
An example--one day is about unconditional love, and the questions for that day ask if this is different than you have acted in the past and how the current results are different.
There are lines to write answers in the book. For a couple to do this, you probably each want to get your own book. If you are the only one in your marriage who would buy or do this, you can still do it and get a lot out of it.
I highly recommend this. It is a terrific way to make baby steps toward a better marriage by doing very simple, measurable actions.
