Love and War by John Eldredge
By now you know what the book is about so I will not go into that information. What I will say is that this is a very practical book. I don't care how long you've been married or how hopeless or great you think your marriage is, you can learn from this book.
John and Stasi Eldredge are very down to earth people. They tell it like it is and I appreciate the fact they share the stories from each of their viewpoints. It has opened my eyes as to how my husband might be reacting to a situation much differently from how I react just by reading John's take on what he and Stasi have dealt with. And I so appeciate their honesty!!
This book will not lead you to a perfect marriage, but it will definitely give you encouragement and hope if you indeed think your spouse will never change. God is a God of Hope and He is also a God of Endurance. Thank you, John and Stasi for this encouraging book!
I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group for this review.

To be upfront, I'm not one who raved over John Eldredge's book Wild at Heart like many men did. It didn't connect with me. But I did enjoy Love & War. In it the Eldredges talk about building a marriage that will last.
John and Stasi are very open and honest about the struggles in their marriage, including a couple times when they almost threw in the towel. They share openly about how they turned their marriage around and have weathered the storms--not just for the sake of making marriage last, but for the sake of making a marriage that works. They clearly love eaach other and view their marriage as a place where God is glorified and where they can mminister to others. Anyone who is maried, and who truly desires a better marriage, should read this book.
