Book Description

April 1, 2009
Behind every good man is a good woman, the old saying goes. How can a wife help her husband grow and progress and be a priesthood leader in the home without criticizing, nagging, or making him feel like he s not measuring up? As a result of some wide reading, pondering, and research, John Bytheway attempts to answer that question in this book. With his trademark humor and unique insights, the author shares experiences from his own marriage, practical counsel from several marriage experts, and inspired statements from Church leaders.

Simple tools such as praising betimes with sharpness and making requests with an exit strategy will bless marriages and help husbands and wives fulfill their roles as they try to lead their families in the latter days.

5.0 out of 5 stars Funny and inspiring, August 7, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Behind Every Good Man: Helping Your Husband Take the Spiritual Lead in the Home (Paperback)
As you have come to expect from John Bytheway, this book is both insightful and humorous. He keeps his book light and readable while addressing heavy and often sensitive issues. This book will stay on my bookshelf (except when I'm rereading it). Great reading and thinking material for wives.

5.0 out of 5 stars GOOD MARITAL PICK ME UP, December 3, 2009
This review is from: Behind Every Good Man: Helping Your Husband Take the Spiritual Lead in the Home (Paperback)
I found this book to be a breezy read and a good refresher course on kindness and consideration. The author reminds us of what we (hopefully) already know...in marriage (as in parenting, friendship, volunteer work, office politics, etc.) criticism RARELY works. Kind words, thoughtful discussions, clear communication and looking for the best in others (this does include our spouse!) is the key. I think a man could read this book (with the genders reversed) and get just as much from it. I did not find it sexist in the least. If you want a more extreme and entertaining book, try "The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands". If you want a complete flip side of this book, try "It's Mostly His Fault".

5.0 out of 5 stars very good, January 29, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Behind Every Good Man: Helping Your Husband Take the Spiritual Lead in the Home (Paperback)
This is a great book-if you haven't read or listened to anything by John Bytheway, you should! He's really great and is exceptionally good at relating to teenagers and helping them understand spiritual things better. Obviously this book is for adults though and it is very good.
