5.0 out of 5 stars Brings back the romance in a marriage, October 1, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: 10 Great Dates to Energize Your Marriage (Paperback)

This book improves communication in a marriage and sets you on the right track to "revitalize" your marriage. After reading and doing the exercises in this book, my husband and I now "date" regularily. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is experiencing the 'blahs' in their marriage.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful tips for a closer marriage!, April 27, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: 10 Great Dates to Energize Your Marriage (Paperback)

My wife and I just love all of the Dave and Claudia Arp books. We attended the a Marriage Alive Seminar last year and the Arps provide practical, easy to understand, biblically based truths on bringing you and your spouse closer together.
Specifically, this text is filled with great suggestions on how to put the rest of your life aside for a few hours and focus on learning about your spouse and strenthening your relationship, and have some fun also! We have a toddler and when we are able to get a sitter and spend some time alone we want to make the most of it and this book has certainly helped.

4.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Ideas, June 7, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: 10 Great Dates to Energize Your Marriage (Paperback)

There are some really wonderful ideas in this book -- although, in all honesty, some are rather ordinary. Take what is meaningful to you and put it into practice. My wife and I still "date" after 17 years together.

If you are looking for more creative dates I'd recommend you check out 300creativedates. com -- I came across the site and the material was outstanding.
