Indlæser... Love & Respect: The Love She Most Desires; The Respect He Desperately Needs (2004)af Emerson Eggerichs
![]() Der er ingen diskussionstråde på Snak om denne bog. ![]() The book in three sentences: “Wives are made to love, want to love, and expect love. Husbands are made to be respected, want respect, and expect respect”.“When a husband feels disrespected, it is especially hard to love his wife. When a wife feels unloved, it is especially hard to respect her husband”.“Often, we focus on our own needs and simply overlook the needs of the other person”. A poor exegesis and application of a passage from Ephesians leads the author to impose a psychological framework on men and women. Men are intrinsically created to need respect (from women especially), and women are intrinsically created to need "love" (from men especially). A complementarian approach that leans heavily towards submission of women to the potentially immature whims of men. I started to read this because so many pastors were referring to the book; but and lost interest about half way through. Became repetitive, and I couldn't get past the obvious misapplication of Ephesians at the outset on which the book was based. Sometimes it's better for Christian counselors to get expert advice on biblical interpretation before building an unsustainable psychological and potentially harmful model. I listened to the audiobook of this book several months ago, after thinking for several years that I ought to read it and never getting around to it. Although I’m not the target audience for this book (I’m not married), I found this book both challenging and eye-opening. It’s made me stop to evaluate my relationships with my father and brothers, and think through ways I can bless them when I interact with and respond to them. If I ever get married, I would definitely want to re-read this one, because it has a lot of practical tips to help combat and rethink common relationship troubles. Recommended—a very good read. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

HTML: Discover the single greatest secret to a successful marriage! Touted as a classic among marriage books, Love & Respect reveals why spouses react negatively to each other and how they can deal with conflict quickly, easily and biblically. A New York Times best-seller with over 2.1 million copies sold. Cracking the communication code between husband and wife involves understanding one thing: that unconditional respect is as powerful for him as unconditional love is for her. It's the secret to marriage that every couple seeks, and yet few couples ever find. While both men and women deserve both love and respect, in the midst of conflict the driving need for a woman is love and the driving need for a man is respect. When either of these needs isn't met, things get crazy. Based on over three decades of counseling, as well as scientific and biblical research, Dr. Emerson Eggerichs and his wife, Sarah, have taken the Love and Respect message across America and are changing the way couples talk to, think about, and treat each other. If you want to feel peace, closeness, value, and to experience marriage the way God intended, this book will help you get there. Love and Respect is for anyone: those in marital crisis, the happily married, engaged couples, pastors and counselors, and small groups. This dynamic and life-changing message is impacting the world, resulting in the healing and restoration of countless relationships. What readers are saying about Love & Respect: "I've been married 35 years and have not heard this taught." "This is the key that I have been missing." "You connected all the dots for me." "As a counselor, I have never been so excited about any material." "You're on to something huge here."Partner Love & Respect with the Love & Respect Workbook for Couples, Individuals, and Groups for an added experience. Love & Respect is also available in Spanish, Amor y Respeto. .No library descriptions found. |
