I'm hopeful

I'm hopeful and yearning to apply what I've learned. It seems any relationship can survive and flourish if these techniques are used. Love is well worth a shot!

Every soul should read this book!

With your heart in the right place & an open mind; this book offers so much wisdom that I believe it would be hard not to apply these principles to every aspect of our lives. The golden rule has always been a great rule to practice, but with specific details it can improve our being able to convey love intentionally. Afterall, the specifics of details is what offers significance, is it not? And being significant is what gives us security & then feeds our contribution to our relationships. Well done Dr. Chapman!! I appreciate your foundation of your work being our Lord & His word. That is the connection I desired to find in a teacher/coach. I am already practicing my husband's Love Language & am asking him today about ordering the Teen's version, as we share 3 beautiful souls I am determined to send off in this great big world with Love tanks overflowing & the skills & resources to apply these principles not only to their marriages, but to all relationships. And not only with the skills, resources & abilities to apply these techniques, but the language to share it with others so that we can influence this world to have more of what it needs so desperately....INTENTIONAL, PRACTICAL, EMPATHETIC LOVE. Again, thank you!

First Time Reading

I just finished my first round of reading this book. I'm a single person, but I still find the information very lucrative and practical regardless of being in an intimate relationship with someone or not. I plan on hitting the single's edition in a few days!

Loved the narrator's reading and story telling.

The Five Love Languages

I like this book because it didn’t only help me understand my fiancé’s love language, it also help me identify mine. I highly recommend to everyone, don’t wait till things are rough in your relationship to want to better it. Every relationship is an investment you get what you put in, so invest in your relationship every day! You will only gain from reading this book, I also think it would be a great wedding gift. 💕
