Five out of ten marriages end up in divorce without the exemption of Christian couples. Is love enough to make a marriage work? What is the missing key towards a happy, long-lasting, profusely-abounding marriage relationship?

In his best-selling book, Love and Respect, Dr. Emerson Eggerichs shares about the reality and truth that wives long  for unconditional love and on the other hand, husbands yearn  for unconditional respect. Love and Respect has been awarded the Golden Medallion and Retailer’s Choice. In a follow-up resource, The Language of Love and Respect, teaches on how to practically apply the wisdom in Love and Respect Christian book to one’s marriage.

Dr. Emmerson Eggerichs earned his Ph.D. from Michigan State University in Child and Family Ecology. He formerly pastored East Lansing Trinity Church. Since 1999, Dr. Emerson Eggerichs along with his wife, Sarah, hold Love and Respect Conferences to minister to married couples across United States, many of which are sponsored by Focus on the Family.  Dr. Emerson Eggerichs is now the president of Love and Respect Ministries.

The Language of Love and Respect: Cracking the Communication Code tackles the difference of communication styles by husband and wife. The basic foundational verse of  The Language of Love and Respect is Ephesians 5:33: “However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.”  In marriages, the top 1 problem is communication and through The Language of Love and Respect, couples will be mentored on how to relate to their spouse in such a way that both of them will understand each other’s needs and lovingly and respectfully respond to them. Many testified on how their marriages were saved and restored by heeding the message by Dr. Emerson Eggerichs on marriage.

Take it from a man married to the same woman since college and who raised up three adult children and walks his talk on this Love and Respect thing.

The Language of Love and Respect by Dr. Emerson Eggerichs and other Christian books are available in our Christian book store or wherever books are sold.
