I just finished reading "Love & Respect" by Dr. Emerson Eggerichs. This book is about learning how differently men and women place the importance of love and respect in a relationship. It is important to learn these differences in order to fully understand how your spouse views these two important pieces of relationship and restore the love and respect that is often missing. Dr. Eggerichs clearly explains these differences in a light and humorous way without making you feel he is talking to men or women in particular.
This was an extremely interesting book. It challenged me often to apply his teaching into different scenarios of my relationship. Even if you think your relationship could not be better, there is something to learn from this book. Just the different pathway of thought between men and women alone is interesting enough to keep you reading this book. I liked how he took it step by step from chapter to chapter so you didn't get lost in one big book. Even though the subject changes slightly in each chapter, he reiterates the most important parts of his message. He also uses biblical reference throughout the book which is helpful for further studying. I would highly recommend this book whether you think your relationship needs it or not. I sure didn't think I needed it, but I learned so much and continue to work on love and respect in my own relationship.
