10 Great Dates to Energize Your Marriage

We were looking at new things to do in our marriage to make it a little stronger and just some new ideas. We got this book from our church who offered free child care while we had to read from the book and do that date every week. IT WAS GREAT! Me and my husband enjoyed reading from the book and it has been FUN! SOo if you would like to help the communication and get date ideas then this is the book for you!!! It talks about improving and/or keeping your marriage alive - it focus on communication but also touches on if you have kids, working, and finding time for your marriage. Overall i would reccommend it to any married couple!

My husband and I have gone thru this book twice. It's so easy to read and fun to put into effect. Who ever said you couldn't have romance AND marriage!?

I find it extremely sad that those who should be dating aren't and those who are dating (12 year olds) shouldn't be. Thanks to the Arps for advocating that adults should be dating even if they have been married for dozens of years. Another excellent book on this subject which has even more dating ideas than this one is The RoMANtic's Guide: Hundreds of Creative Tips for a Lifetime of Love. I think both books are outstanding.

This book improves communication in a marriage and sets you on the right track to "revitalize" your marriage. After reading and doing the exercises in this book, my husband and I now "date" regularily. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is experiencing the 'blahs' in their marriage.

My wife and I just love all of the Dave and Claudia Arp books. We attended the a Marriage Alive Seminar last year and the Arps provide practical, easy to understand, biblically based truths on bringing you and your spouse closer together. Specifically, this text is filled with great suggestions on how to put the rest of your life aside for a few hours and focus on learning about your spouse and strenthening your relationship, and have some fun also! We have a toddler and when we are able to get a sitter and spend some time alone we want to make the most of it and this book has certainly helped.
