Editorial Reviews

NEW 5 DISC DVD BOX SET!!! This is a marriage message with a difference. A Revolutionary Message. A Simple Message. A wife has one driving need -- to feel loved. When that need is met, she is happy. A husband has one driving need -- to feel respected. When that need is met, he is happy. When either of these needs isn't met, things get crazy. "Love and Respect" reveals why spouses react negatively to each other, and how they can deal with such conflict quickly, easily and biblically. A Message That Works. Based on over three decades of counseling, as well as scientific and biblical research, Dr. Emerson Eggerichs and his wife, Sarah, have already taken the "Love and Respect" message across America and are changing the way couples talk to, think about, and treat each other. What do you want for your marriage? Want some peace? Want to feel close? Want to feel valued? Want to experience marriage the way God intended? Then why not try some Love and Respect.

5.0 out of 5 stars One husband's perspective, November 14, 2005

By

This review is from: Love & Respect Live Marriage Conference (DVD)

My wife and I just attended the Love & Respect Conference and I'm astounded to be the first reviewer of the DVD. If you are familiar with it, speak up so that those of us who are skeptical about these types of things will be emboldened to act (and might even buy the DVD or attend a conference).

SUMMARY: If you are like me you will wonder out loud, "if most couples experience the same/similar things that we do, then why in the world did it take this long for a person to articulate these very simple truths?" I cannot answer that question.

I was skeptical about the presentation style. However, Emerson Eggerich is an excellent and very entertaining speaker. I was less skeptical about the content because I felt sure it would be the same old stuff repackaged. However, the content will blow you away! The ideas the Eggerichs discuss are not their own, but described by him as "hidden in plain sight." You will nod in the affirmative (or shake your head in disbelief) throughout the DVD as the Eggerichs' put words to (or state more clearly) your thoughts and feelings. You will be tempted to nudge your spouse (or vice versa) and say, "that is SO you."

FOR MEN: this DVD will put into words some of those things you yourself have been unable to explain to your wife - you know what I mean - those times you've been mad or upset by something she's done / doing so you just have to walk away. Learn why that is, how you and she make it worse, and what to do to fix it.

FOR WOMEN (from a man's perspective): this DVD says (in language that a man can understand) all those things that you have been telling him over and over and over again, but he just doesn't get, as well as why we husbands do what we do. Learn how you and he make things worse without meaning to and how to fix it. Knowledge is power and I hope you will use it wisely.

For the husband or wife going it alone: this DVD tells you why you should even bother. I believe that it will motivate and empower you in ways that you cannot imagine.

FOR THE NON-CHRISTIAN: Did you know that Christians divorce as frequently (or almost) as non-Christians? Did you know that "Christians" are the #1 stumbling block to you even giving God a chance? If you are married, but think your marriage could/should be better than it currently is, this DVD is worth a look - you have nothing to lose, they'll give your money back if it doesn't change your marriage.

FOR THOSE WHO CONSIDER THEMSELVES CHRISTIANS (from as big a sinner as any): In addition to all the above, you will be reminded of things that are drowned out by the world: where you came from, what you were created for, what is hoped for and expected of you, and why you should be willing to die for (BUT ALSO LIVE FOR) your marriage. You will be humbled to discover yet one more way in which you underestimate your God who is omnipotent, omnicient and omnipresent.

FYI - I have absolutely no affiliation with the Eggerichs or their products. This is my personal review of their conference(not even my wife has read it). If I have mis-characterized anything, my apologies and I hope you will correct it.

5.0 out of 5 stars 100 STARS !!!, July 11, 2006

By

This review is from: Love & Respect Live Marriage Conference (DVD)

After watching the first DVD as a preview to an upcoming Love and Respect conference , we ordered the full set. My husband wanted to stay up all night watching the DVDs.

Does my husband usually show any interest in this sort of thing? Not really. Why the interest now? Because Dr. Eggerichs has insight and wisdom regarding a man's needs that is NOT expressed in today's society. We have implemented his suggestions and they work.

I wish we had watched these on our honeymoon! They are the best investment we've ever made. We learned more from these in one weekend that in 10 years of everything else we've ever tried or done.

From now on, they will be the only gift we give to newly married couples - nothing else compares.

This review is from: Love & Respect Live Marriage Conference (DVD)

If over 50% of Christian marriages are failing, the Christian population is doing a miserable job of following God's word. The focus of this series is on two words: Love and Respect. While our culture belives in unconditional love, it often doesn't believe unconditional respect is important. Women crave unconditional love and men crave unconditional respect. Our minds were wired by God to be different. We were created in the image of God as male and female. Our sexes think about things differently-"not wrong, just different."

Dr. Emerson Eggerichs describes the two sexes as wearing different headphones and glasses. Men wear blue glasses and blue headphones. Women wear pink glasses and pink headphones. A man might say to his wife, "I have nothing to wear!" A wife might say the same words and mean she has nothing "new." A man, on the other hand, might mean he has nothing "clean." As Dr. Emerson says repeatedly, "Not wrong, just different."

I do find the "Love and Respect" DVD is an excellent marriage resource. I haven't finished watching all of the DVDs yet, but what I have watched thus far is awesome. Dr. Eggerichs really is a great presenter, has done lots of research, and most importantly, validates all things he talks about with the word of God. If Christians would look to the Bible for the answers to life, we wouldn't have so many problems. Eggerichs uses examples from the Old and New Testament to speak about love and respect. Whatever people want to believe, the fact is, men and women are different. We were created by God to have different roles in the marriage.

I would give this dvd series over 5 stars if I could; it's that good. Any couple desiring marriage should watch this series. Any couple that is married should watch this series too. Marriage must become the sacred institution it once was. I'm really thankful Dr. Eggerichs presents uncorrupted biblical truths in this day and age.
