Product Description

Ephesians 5:33 in the Bible says that wives shall always respect their husbands, but most women struggle with this concept. Are you one of them?

The truth is that women get married with dreams, hopes and aspirations that are often never fulfilled. More than half of marriages end in divorce in the United States, and many women that stay married are unhappy.

The Respect Dare is a forty-day devotional guide that will take away the mystery that is keeping you from speaking the language of respect with your husband. It provides real life examples from women who have developed closer relationships with God and their husbands. In it, you will learn:

● How to build confidence;
● Methods to positively handle conflicts;
● Keys to better communication;
● How to develop a more intimate connection with your spouse;
● Ways to deepen your relationship with God;
● And much more!

Learn the language of respect and truly connect to the man you married with The Respect Dare.

Dare to be different
The Respect Dare is just that, a dare to respect your husband--no matter what the outcome. The 40-day challenge begins with a gentle nudge for wives to consider the ways in which they can grow, while focusing on a Scripture verse and a bottom line truth from real women's journeys. You'll find yourself identifying with the "Daughter's" stories. The stories are real. I lived part of them and watched many of them unfold through a Daughters of Sarah course. The questions for each day's dare will require no more than 20 minutes and the impact of answering them is lasting. The dares required each day are simple--not necessarily easy--but simple. The Respect Dare is not for the stagnant woman unwilling to grow or learn or change. The Respect Dare is not intended to create doormat wives, either. It's for the dynamic woman who, flawed as she may be, wants to love and be loved and is willing to do whatever it takes to become that woman, even respecting a less-than-perfect husband. It's written for each wife--no matter where she is in her spiritual journey and marriage--to sharpen her marital tools in her toolbox and to deepen her spiritual journey. Consider The Respect Dare as a companion on your journey along a little known, but breathtaking path: a marriage steeped in honor and respect. I double-dog dare you.

Highly recommended book!
Awesome book! The Respect Dare contains a marvelous program for wives who want to learn what it means to respect their husbands and to put their knowledge into action. The program works because it encourages wives to move knowledge from their heads to their hearts and behavior. The program is of benefit regardless of where you are in your marriage (newlywed versus married a long time; happily married versus struggling, etc.).

In addition to the book, an inexpensive on-line e-course is also available. This course allows small groups of women to work the exercises in the book together and receive feedback and encouragement each week from the author, who is a gifted mentor. This is a young ministry. As the ministry grows, it probably won't be feasible for the author to continue to provide this kind of one-on-one feedback. I encourage all wives who buy the book to take advantage of this marvelous on-line opportunity, too! I say that because I've received significant benefit from the book and on-line program. I recommend both without reservation.

Highly recommended
The Respect Dare is a book of devotional exercises to help a woman "practice" the art of showing her husband respect. The exercises have application not only for wives towards husbands, but even in friendships or with our children. Showing respect is not always a natural activity for most of us and this book will help one understand better the ways you relate to your husband and others. Not only that, you will reap the benefits of treating others in a way that makes them feel valued. If you are person desiring personal growth, this is a book for you. Thanks for this valuable resource!
