Most of my readers know that my husband Richard passed away four years ago.My late husband Richard and I were married 18 months when he passed away.We met on myspace in 2007 and were myspace friends.We would talk at least 12 hours a day to each other either on yahooim or on the phone.We knew each other for 18 months when we married in Feb 2009. I was married for a very short time when I was in my early 20's and it was an abusive marriage. |
Richard definitely was so much different from my first husband.Richard was my best friend,respected me very much.Richard and I always tried our best to listen to God and what His plans were for our marriage.
This book is definitely written for any season of married life.From newlyweds to older marriages.This book dives deep into the scripture and scripture references that intertwine with the lesson he is teaching.The Bible is the best guide to go to on marriage.The book does stick to Biblical truths that can and will transform marriages.The book is wonderful to read together as a couple.My late husband and I read the Bible together daily.I wish this book was around when he was still alive because I am sure Richard would of loved this book as much as I have.There are questions at the end of each chapter of this the book and it gives you the opportunity to have more intimate conversations with your spouse.
