Have you ever fought with your spouse, and after it was over, wondered what you were arguing about? Have you ever felt unloved, disrespected, or misunderstood by the person whom you love the most? If you answered yes to any of these things, you may appreciate reading The Language of Love and Respect. Based on the principles found in his book entitled Love and Respect, Dr. Emerson Eggerichs explores the vastly different communication needs of men and women.
In the first chapter, Dr. Eggerichs gives an overview of his book Love and Respect; although the book itself shares a lot of overlap with Love and Respect. He then outlines some effective communication principles. Finally, he describes the three cycles that most couples find themselves in. His theories are based completely on biblical truths. I think that whether you are looking to enrich your marriage, or in need of some drastic changes, that this book has some very useful and practical applications.
