About this listen

"Marriage is God's answer for our deepest human need: Companionship." - Dr. Gary Chapman

And that, according to counselor and relationship expert Dr. Gary Chapman, author of the New York Times best seller The Five Love Languages, is to have deep and lasting union with another, to truly become one. But how can you build that oneness from the beginning? With the expert wisdom and practical common sense that have made him a popular speaker worldwide, Dr. Chapman helps couples with such questions as:

  • "Why won't my spouse change?"
  • "What does it really mean to love someone else?"
  • "How do I get him to listen to me?"
  • "What if I'm the only one working at the marriage?"

    Whether you're starting your life together, or just need to improve communication in your marriage, Dr. Chapman's wisdom will help you move toward "the marriage you've always wanted".

    Biblical principles in marriage

    I love all of this book from start to finish; I realized God had led me to read this amazing book, the wisdom I received helped me more in several areas I needed clarity in my relationship with my husband. I plan to read the other books in marriage counseling. Awesome book!

    Great book

    I have already listened to this book twice and I am about to listen again. I also ordered the book and I have read it as well. It has so much to offer a marriage. I also got my husband to listen to it and we are going to use the written book to complete the suggested assignments at the end of each chapter. It has already begun to improve my marriage just by listening. Dr. Chapman's books offer the Christian an excellent resource for a better more Christ filled & happy life.

    Read as an engaged couple!

    My fiancée and I listened to this together in the car. As an engaged couple, there was a lot we had to imagine. We still live with out parents and I am just finishing school, so many of the lessons required is to stretch our imagination and think of our possible future. Regardless, Dr. Chapman has a wealth of knowledge and relatable stories and experiences to share. This book gave me many ideas to take to my marriage and the core idea of being a selfless lover is perfect for all people and all Christians in marriage or going into marriage.
