I Choose You Today – 31 Choices To Make Love Last – Book Review
There are times in life you make a commitment to something without fully understanding what that entails. Kind of a leap of faith, a let’s roll with the punches and hope for the best sort of deal. I’ve been there, and I’ll bet you have too.
So opens Deb DeArmond’s new book, I Choose You Today – 31 Choices To Make Love Last.
I Choose You Today is a wonderful book filled with devotions designed to help married and engaged couples deepen the love, respect and commitment they have for one another in their relationships.
This biblically-centered book is based on the following premises:
Love is not a feeling, and neither is marriage.
Each is a choice – one that must be made every single day, even if it’s spoken through gritted teeth.
It’s an act of our will to choose our marriage, day in and day out…
And it is God’s grace that makes that choice possible.
I Choose You Today contains 31 brief devotional readings centered around topics and issues that often arise in a couple’s relationship. You’ll find a Scripture to reflect upon; real-life stories to relate to; principles to apply; questions to discuss; and prayers to help you grow.
You can choose to work through I Choose You Today on your own – as a couple – or in a small group or Bible study setting. If you choose the latter, you’ll find a Leader’s Guide on the author’s website.
What I liked most about I Choose You Today was the relevancy of the topics and the emphasis on applying biblical principles to your relationship. I found the questions thought-provoking and found the time commitment just right to meet the needs of a busy but committed-to-the-process couple.
If you are interested in improving the quality of your relationship – no matter how long you’ve been together or what you’ve been through – and are looking for a biblically based resource to guide you through the process, I highly recommend Deb DeArmond’s I Choose You Today to you.
I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars.
