Understanding the Male and Female
How men and women think and act
FOR MEN ONLY - FOR WOMEN ONLY We have the admonition in 2 Peter 3:7 that husbands are to dwell with their wife according to KNOWLEDGE. I have read many books over the years on marriage, husband and wife relationships, some, if not most of these books have been L....O....N....G, and hence quite involved and detailed, so much so that you have to sigh and think "Is marriage that complicated." Sure, there was much in such books that was correct and helpful, and I'm not saying you should not read these long complicated books on marriage, and husband and wife relationships. But FINALLY, I have found in 2007 TWO NEW BOOKS that have made the subject not only factual, interesting, but also relatively SHORT! Two books that give you the fundamental truth and facts on HOW to understand women and HOW to understand men - what makes them "tick" as we say. "FOR MEN ONLY" is by husband and wife team Shaunti and Jeff Feldhahn. "FOR WOMEN ONLY" is by Shaunti Feldhahn. Published by Multnomah Publishers, Sisters, Oregon I have to say that when I started to read these two books I could hardly put them down until finished. I was saying all the way through, yes, I've known these truths, others have in some form also written about them, but here it is all put in a straight-forward, simple, easy to read form. Yes, the keys to understanding how most men and women "tick" is made simple yet interesting by this young husband and wife team. On the back cover of FOR MEN ONLY is this: FINALLY YOU CAN UNDERSTAND HER! WOMEN: complicated and impossible to understand? Have you given up trying to "get" the woman in your life? If so, you are in for a pleasant eye-opener: She CAN be understood. Even better - YOU can make her happy. Which will make you happy. The bestselling author of FOR WOMEN ONLY teams with her husband to offer men the key to unlocking the mysterious ways of women. Through Shaunti and Jeff Feldhahn's national scientific survey and hundreds of interviews, FOR MEN ONLY reveals what you can do today to improve your relationship. And believe it or not, as Jeff assures men, "It;s not splitting the atom." What makes her tick? What is she really asking (but not actually saying)? Take the guesswork out of trying to please your wife or girlfriend and begin loving her in a way she needs. Easily. FOR MEN ONLY is a straightforward map that will lead you straight to her heart. From Dennis Rainey, President, Family Life, we have this: When we featured Shaunti's book FOR WOMEN ONLY on Family Life Today, the phone rang off the hook! When Shaunti and Jeff come back on our broadcast, I'm buying some more phones. This is fresh and relevant - good stuff for every marriage. Read it! THE CONTENTS OF FOR MEN ONLY 1.

THE GIRL IN THE MIRROR What the little girl inside your woman is dying to hear from you - and how to guard your answer well 8. THE MAN SHE HAD HOPED TO MARRY What the woman who loves you most, most wants you to know On the back cover of FOR WOMEN ONLY is this: THE TRUTH ABOUT HIS INNER LIFE HE DESPERATELY WANTS YOU TO KNOW What's going on in there? Ever been totally confused by something your man has said or done? Want to understand his secret desires and fears, his daily battles that you know nothing about? In a woman-to-woman conversation you'll never forget, shaunti Feldhahn takes you beneath the surface into the inner lives of men. This book is about the things we just don't "get" about guys. With findings from a groundbreaking national survey and personal interviews of over one thousand men, FOR WOMEN ONLY is full of eye-opening revelations you need to not only understand the man in your life, but to support and love him in the way he needs to be loved. Grounded in biblical hope, you will discover how to love your man for who he really is - not who you think he is. From Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott, Seattle Pacific University, authors of Love Talk, is this on Shaunti's book: Ready for an eye-opener? A mountain of meaningful information for any woman wanting to understand men at a profound level. THE CONTENTS FOR FOR WOMEN ONLY 1. LIGHTBULB ON! How I woke up to what I didn't know about men 2.

They will give you the knowledge to be able to understand what makes the average (there are exceptions to the rule of course) man and woman "tick" - your whole world will expand like never before concerning the opposite sex. Most Bible Books Stores will be able to obtain these two fine books for you. Keith Hunt - March 2007 |
