Book Reviews of The Act of Marriage: The Beauty of Sexual LoveBook Review: A must for those who are looking to build a strong marriage! Summary: 5 Stars
I just finished reading the book 2 days ago and ever since I started I have been sharing its insights to my wife. I got married in May 1998 but my wife and I had been separated by distance since 2 weeks after we got married. I'm still in the process of sponsoring her to join me where I am now.This book had made me realize how much my wife and I still have to learn and it gives me the exciting anticipation of learning it with her using the principles outlined by the book. The Lord's involvement even in this area is crucial and I commend the LaHaye's for putting forth such great revelation to those who are missing the spiritual dimension in the act of marriage. Thank you!
Book Review: No, No and No Summary: 1 Stars
What really turned me off about this book was when I read the chapter on "Sane Birth Control". I would have skipped that chapter since I have no interest in being a parent. But something prompted me to read it. I found a condemnation of the childfree lifestyle. Apparently, the authors have no familiarity with childfree issues. Nor did they seem to have much understanding and sympathy for those who would like to have children, but are physically unable to do so. The authors also do not acknowledge that women's roles have expanded since the early 20th century. The idea that most married women are or will be stay-at-home moms is not reality. I cannot recommend this book.
Book Review: Very Helpful and Useful Summary: 5 Stars
This book was very information and still kept the act of sex in a sacred manner. If you view sex as special and sacred thing especially with a Christian outlook, then you'll very much enjoy this book. It's informative and helpful. It'll help you come to understand more about how to have more fulfillment and in a way to bring you closer to your spouse. It's fantastic for those who are preparing for marriage and need to understand more or who are married with a need to have greater fulfillment. I'd recommend this book to anyone who I thought it could help. That pretty much is anyone who is engaged to married for many years! You won't regret buying this book!
Book Review: Great source of christian information regarding intimacy. Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the books my husband and I read before our wedding. I was raised in a christian home and had no knowledge in this area. It was a topic that just wasn't discussed even in the church. I didn't want to be afraid of intimacy, due to the lack of knowledge but rather in peace knowing that the act of marriage is sacred and to be enjoyed in the union of marriage. My husband and I were able to get informed with a christian perspective and we were able to take from it what we needed. This is a book that I often give to friends whom are getting married. It is a great book to read as a starter in getting to know more about intimacy in a marriage.
Book Review: Simply the Best Summary: 5 Stars
As an engaged man excited about my impending first sexual encounter, I reached out to Christian friends for a recommendation about books about the top of sex. To a fault, each of them recommended LaHaye's "The Act of Marriage." After finishing the book, I couldn't agree any more. As the title of this review suggests, this book is simply the best. Not a single addition or subtraction would add or take away anything from this book. It covers almost every topic, addresses every taboo, and provides several golden nuggets of advice. It's a wonderful book. I recommend it to all who are engaged, newly married, or married for decades!
