As a veteran counselor in a marital introduction company, Judy Cheng aims at sharing some of the toughest experiences people encounter in their married lives; stories that are shared with tears, broken hearts, struggles, plights and pains, which unexpectedly, turn out to be lessons of strength and wisdom leading to hope. Enlightened by the stories of people who have suffered immensely but who are also not intimidated by the hurt and loss, Judy tells those stories as ruthlessly as they actually are. Those are amazing stories of people keeping hope and faith alive despite being beaten badly time and again by that very thing called ‘love’. The book is an extraordinary journey of love and relationship that readers would find resonance, consolation, support and insight. This book is inspired by real life couples. To protect the privacy of all of the characters involved, all names, incidents, places, and organizations have been fictionalized. “Some of Cheng’s advice is inspirational in tone; for example, regarding one’s choices on life, she writes that “open doors are everywhere. You only need to dare knock on them.” At another point, she sagely advises bickering couples to think of each other as fine works of art to appreciate and admire.” — Kirkus Reviews “She also includes several client case studies, which are the most memorable parts of the book. In one poignant anecdote, for instance, she describes how an abused woman bravely decided to look for love again.” — Kirkus Reviews

What does it look like to love your husband well, according to the Bible? It doesn’t mean being a “perfect” wife. After all, if we were perfect, we wouldn’t need Jesus! And it doesn’t mean living up to every single one of your husband’s expectations—nowhere in the Bible will you find a command to give up who God created you to be in favor of who your husband wants you to be. So what does it mean? Dare to Love Your Husband Well is an interactive devotional and journal designed to lead you to a deeper, more fulfilling relationship with God and with your husband. Each day includes a Bible verse, a short prayer, a journaling prompt and space for meditative writing, and a dare. That’s right, a dare! Because getting to a place of deeper intimacy can be scary—it requires vulnerability and risk taking, and probably some tough soul searching. What are the blocks keeping you from the kind of marriage God designed? Are there idols in your life that you need to lay down in order to make room for the blessings God has in store for you? Or maybe you have a vague sense of dissatisfaction that you’ve never taken the time to define, never mind figure out what to do about it. Sometimes loving your husband well means telling him what you need. Are you afraid to speak out loud what you really want from your partner and best friend? With Dare to Love Your Husband Well, you will be challenged to pray for your husband, to recognize his strengths, to voice your desires, to discover his unique needs, and to experience the kind of intimacy God intends for your marriage.

We clash when tailed by a crazy ex, try to detour from past heartbreak, and take a wrong turn that leads us to discover what we have in common. When the trip comes to an end and real-life intervenes, sending us in different directions, he says I'm like a tune he can't get out of his head. Forgive? Forget? Maybe...

"A long and happy marriage." It sounds like the end of a fairy tale--an illusion that modern times have exposed. And it is, if marriage depends on a constant stream of romantic emotion, or even on copious amounts of time or money. Thank the Lord, none of those are necessary. Two thousand years ago, Paul gave women the key to a successful marriage, and it can be summed up in two words: unconditional respect. It's not popular. It doesn't sound fair. It can be hard to imagine. But it works. Nina Roesner has led countless women through this practical and life-changing journey, and in The Respect Dare she offers you the hope that so many others have found. Day by day, true stories and thought-provoking questions will help you apply biblical wisdom to the most important relationship in your life. The book is filled with stories of struggle and success, and many practical applications of respect that have dramatically impacted marriages. Give it forty days. Experience the intimacy God intended and discover what he can do in your heart and in your marriage when you choose to show respect his way.
