If you know me, that title brings up questions, because I am not married, nor have I been married before. To ease your mind, I am not going to give you instructions on the topic, this is a book review. The book I read is Love, Sex, and Happily Ever After by Craig Groeschel. I was timid, to put it one way, about reading it with a title like that, but I’m glad I did.<\/p>\n
Craig Groeschel starts off by telling readers that this is not a magic bullet-solve all the problems book. He does not give you a step by step process, guaranteed to get you a spouse in 3o days or your money back. Though, he does give you steps to follow, and does make some promises, but they’re not outlandish by any means.<\/p>\n
He does tell you that the first step in looking for your “one,” should be changed to looking for “The One,” Jesus. Without a relationship with Him, a relationship with a spouse would be difficult at best.<\/p>\n
One theme that was woven throughout is to make sure you do get the cart before the horse. There is an order that needs to be followed; Christ is first, then your spouse, then other things that I won’t write here because I had to read the book to find out and it is only fair that you do the same.<\/p>\n
It’s a good book, and I’d recommend it to others. If you happen to be uneasy like I am, he doesn’t spend much time on the middle subject. He mentions it, but focus on the love and happily ever after part.<\/p>\n
I did receive this book for free from Waterbrook Multnomah because I did this review. Actually, that is doubly good because I don’t think I could have worked up the courage to buy the book in a bookstore without imagining people giving me funny looks. But, that’s another story…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
