Love and Respect Workbook: The Love She Most Desires; The Respect He Desperately Needs

The Love & Respect Workbook is designed to help couples deepen intimacy by breaking cycles of conflict and restoring passion in their relationship. The core principle is that unconditional respect is as powerful for men as unconditional love is for women. While both partners deserve both love and respect, during conflict a woman's primary need tends to be love and a man's tends to be respect. When these needs go unmet, relationship problems intensify. Based on over three decades of counseling combined with scientific and biblical research, this workbook is intended for those in marital crisis, happily married couples, engaged couples, pastors, counselors, and small groups. The workbook includes 14 sessions covering the full Love & Respect material, scripture studies for meditation and prayer, and specific questions for both husbands and wives. It can be used by individuals or couples and offers guidance on handling conflict in biblical ways.
