    About this ebook

    When you touch your spouseÆs deepest need, something good almost always happens!

    Based on three decades of counseling and research, Dr. Emerson Eggerichs leads couples through the intricacies of a marriage built on Love and Respect.  He explores the differences in men and women and how a husbandÆs need for respect can be balanced by a wifeÆs need for love.  When these needs are mutually recognized and made a priority, a fulfilling and meaningful marriage will be the inevitable result.

    Love and Respect for a Lifetime makes the ideal gift:

    • ItÆs all color, photo-filled design makes it inviting for couples to look at together.
    • It is a compilation of Dr. Eggerichs best Love & Respect tips: a quick and easy read that proves enticing to a spouse that might be apprehensive of working through an entire study or book.
    • ItÆs engaging message validates the core needs of each spouse and gives a message of hope, encouragement and practical time-tested solutions for every marriage rather than focusing on placing blame or judging.
    • ItÆs ideal as a gift for dating or engaged couples, as well as a wedding or anniversary gift.  ItÆs elegant design invites the recipients to open, read it together and leave out as a display for others to take a closer look at what it means to love her and to respect him.

      Love and Respect for a Lifetime - Dr. Emerson Eggerichs

      INTRODUCTION

      Ironically, there are more books being published on marriage today than ever before. There are books on marital communication, money management, sex, etc. There are even books on how to become a better husband (or wife) in thirty days! But with all our knowledge, the craziness and conflict continues. And it doesn’t seem to matter if the couples are Christians or unbelievers. Why? I have concluded that those of us in the church, who believe we have the Truth, are not using the whole truth. A crucial part of God’s Word has been completely ignored or perhaps simply gone unnoticed when it has been there all the time right under our noses!

      Many Christian spouses know Ephesians 5:33 and can at least paraphrase it. The apostle Paul tells husbands to love their wives as much as they love themselves, and wives are to respect their husbands. But is anyone really listening? Perhaps the first step to better communication between husband and wife is to hear what God’s Word clearly says, because living out Ephesians 5:33 is the key to blending together as one to reflect the very image of God.

      This book will show you the power of unconditional love and unconditional respect. As you and your spouse use these powerful tools, you can save a struggling marriage from the divorce court or a ho-hum marriage from boredom and concealed bitterness. If you have a good marriage, you can make it even better.

      —EMERSON EGGERICHS

      The first question some folks ask is Don’t women need respect and men need love? Absolutely. We all need love and respect equally. However, Ephesians 5:33 says that a husband must love his wife and a wife must respect her husband. Apparently there is a felt need in a wife for love and, in a husband, for respect. Assuming this to be true but wanting to validate it, we asked seven thousand people this question: During a conflict with your spouse, do you feel unloved or disrespected? Eighty-three percent of the men said they feel disrespected, and 72 percent of the women feel unloved.
