Product Description
Too many marriages end when someone says "I've fallen out of love with you" or "I don't love you anymore." The Love Dare discusses how these statements reveal a lack of understanding about the fundamental nature of true love. As featured in the popular new movie Fireproof, from the team that brought us the #1 best selling DVD Facing the Giants, The Love Dare is a 40-day guided devotional experience that will lead your heart back to truly loving your spouse while learning more about the design, nature, and source of true love. Each reading includes Scripture, a statement of principle, the day's "dare," and a journaling area and check box to chart progress. Dare to take The Love Dare, and see your marriage change forever.

 Improving Your Marriage Relationship March 6, 2010
kenny johns (Rosemark, TN USA)
If you are truly ready to work on making your marriage better, this is a great book. However, you'd better be serious about it! There is a daily challenge and they are not always easy!
Do the Dare March 4, 2010
Kevin G. Cudney (Rochester, NY United States)
Hands down this is one of the best books I've read. I received one from my church, waited several months until my wife "forgot" about it. And then she got love dared. When I began the dare I thought it was just going to be 40 days of gimicky stuff to make my wife smile every now and then. After all I didn't have a marriage that was on the rocks. But, it is so much more. This isn't just some "improve your marraige in 40 steps program". It challenges YOU to do things for yourself. It challenges YOU to re-connect (or improve your connection) with God.
So if you've read this far; you're probably wondering, "if I received this book how am I writing a review". Because I believe in The Love Dare so strongly I bought the book for two people who I felt needed it. And I'll keep buying more!
Great common sense and practical advice March 3, 2010

How often do you find yourself having the same argument or what feels like the same disagreement with your significant other and you wonder why do we always end up here? Reading this book helped me to realize that in order to see change you have to be the change in your relationship. You've got to admit to yourself that you aren't perfect and that you aren't always right. Sometimes being a loving husband or wife means that you must make compromises even if it's difficult. Loving someone means loving all of them, warts and all which is how God loves all of His children. You begin to realize reading this book and performing the dares that it is hard work loving someone unconditionally and you begin to see how often you look for shortcomings and things to irritate you that your loved one does and how easy it is to overlook all the good and wonderful things they bring to the table. I recommend this book to couples who need help but also for couples who want to become closer and who want to learn to love the complete person. I can't say enough about the insight this book has given me into my own thoughts and actions and how they affect the daily interactions I have with my loved one. It has opened my eyes and with God's strength I hope to continue to use the principles and messages from the book to keep a positive, loving atmosphere for our relationship to grow in.
A great thing for Lent March 2, 2010

I bought this book to use, not on my spouse, but on my class of kindergarten students. The daily discussions on aspects of love are applicable to many relationships. The dares need a little modification for my purpose, but so far they have all been relevant enough. I needed the Love Dare to turn over a new leaf and start being more positive, patient, and loving in my classroom in concrete ways. The Love Dare has helped me to see how I was the problem in my relationship with my students. Doing the dare has changed my attitude toward my students. I have a renewed desire to serve them and nurture them. I highly recommend persevering in the Love Dare.
It's all about the love March 1, 2010
Tim (Belleview, Florida)
I sought The Love Dare out of my personal need and desire to improve my marriage. As an Episcopal priest I had fallen into the obvious trap of meeting everyone's needs ahead of my wife's and family's. I promised to love, honor and keep her and was failing to do that properly. I found the book's counsel to be superb and it opened my eyes to my shortcomings and set me on what I feel is the right path to the true joy and love we should have in the covenant of marriage.
Further, I feel this book's lessons on love are easily adaptable to any and every relationship we have. If we truly believe we are to Love God and our neighbor as ourselves, then that love will be patient and kind. It will never be boastful, arrogant or rude. It will hope all things, expect all things and endure all things.
It is a Christian book and I am a Christian. With that confession, the book helped me to more fully understand the way the Lord wants me to love, as Christ loves me. Not just in spite of my faults, but undertsanding that love is often the means of correcting and healing those same faults and the wounds they cause.
Powerful stuff! I commend it fully, and I regularly offer it to anyone who is struggling in their marriage.
