Book Review: Boundaries of Marriage
Summary: 5 Stars
Drs. Cloud and Townsend did an outstanding job with this book. I have added this book as a must read for all who comes to me for counseling. Our pastor also added it to his list for those who are planning on getting married. Every one should read boundaries, whether it is for marriage or single people. It has a message for all. If we understood boundaries then some of the arguments would not be. It would save some unnecessary heartaches. The authors does not leave a stone unturn. They addresses practically all subjects, for example, oneness, you were not always one, now you are trying to become one. Christ is still completing the work in us that He has begun until we go to be in His presence. I highly recommend this book.I am reading Boundaries, When to Say Yes, When to Say No, To Take Control of Your Life by Dr.Henry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend.Book Review: Excellent book for all married people
Summary: 4 Stars
This book like all the others in the Townsend/Cloud series is real specific and great for anyone wanting to know more about healthy ways of relating. It helps to define who is responsible for what behavior and how to handle those that are out of control whether it is your spouse's or yours. Yes I had some real eye opener's and I like to think I do a great job, but I was just as responsible for my part in the marriage's success. Not all, but part. Boundaries in marriage gives you the tools for healthy relating and how to take action even if the other person is not. It brings people together not seperating with some cooky formula about men being so very different that they are from Mars. I think anyone who wants to take charge of the marriage or just feel good about their relationship should read this book.Book Review: Boundaries in Marriage
Summary: 5 Stars
Drs. Henry Cloud and John Townsend have a gifted way in putting hard life issues in a good way by reminding us to take the power back that God has given us. They've written several books on boundaries that can apply to every relationship possible. In this book it describes healthy and safe ways to create boundaries in our personal lives that will enhance our marriages and give us absolute freedom to be ourselves. They don't say that boundaries are selfish hedges that we put around us like walls, but boundaries on ourselves that encourage healthy growing relationships. This is a must read for both husband and wife together if possible. This can be read by singles as well as just one half of the married couple, because gaining respect, responsibility, and freedom for ourselves is half the battle.Book Review: This book WILL help you
Summary: 5 Stars
Whether you're not married yet or in the middle of the misery of a bad one, I absolutely KNOW this book will help you. I am divorced ( 14 years ago) and about to get married for the second time. Bought this book in order to NOT screw it up this time, and wound up learning so much about people in general, and about myself. Some of it is a little shocking, and very "out of the box", but at the same time maintains perfect Christian integrity and doctrine.
Not only that but it's written so well, and contains so many case studies you don't want to put it down. My husband to be got it on CD and listens on his commute to work so we're "reading" it together. Can't recommend it highly enough.
