We've been blessed,
By Bobbi McGill (LaGrange, Ky United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: One True Vow: Love Stories of Faith and Commitment (Paperback)
We didn't realize the emotional impact that, "One True Vow" would have on us until we read it. We both cried. Eva wrote our story about my long term illness, just as if she'd been living here with us. We've truly been so blessed throughout the long, hard haul that it almost seems a dream that it's been so long. God has erased so many bad memories, but through it all, we hung onto Him. He was our source, as I'm sure he was each and everyone elses in, "One True Vow." I'm so blessed that my husband took, "in sickness and in health serious." He's upheld our vows. An excellent encourager to those doubting what God can do in their marriage. It should all start from the wedding day and meaning the vows we repeat to one another. Great gift for those intending to marry. Bobbi McGill

One True Vow is the second act. Marriage: Part 2. As the newlywed high wears off and couples kick it in for the long haul, they discover a wedding may be a destination, but a marriage is a journey. The challenging path can be safely navigated regardless of bumps, obstacles and downright crevasses, only with the help of your Guide, Jesus Christ. After 29 years of marriage, 8 kids and 2 grandkids, we know we'd have never made it without Him. Read this book and rejoice in the miracle of a marriage replete with the presence and grace of God. Don't settle for I Do when you can have Happily Ever After.

Attention young couples, newlyweds, and life-long partners!,
By Sharon D. Llewellyn (Corona, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: One True Vow: Love Stories of Faith and Commitment (Paperback)
Are you wondering if you're ready for marriage?Are you wondering what happens when the honeymoon's over? Are you wondering if there's any hope? Then you should check out this book. It is filled with such incredible stories (real-life accounts) of commitment and hope, and faith and love, when couples face adversity in their relationships. What a blessing it was to read. Yes, there is hope -- the stories in this book clearly illustrate this fact. It would be a great gift for young couples, newlyweds and those who have been married for years! Enjoy!

my story in print,
By Ann Addison (Columbia, SC United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: One True Vow: Love Stories of Faith and Commitment (Paperback)
Eva wrote me and asked me to share my trials and tribulations during my husbands illnesses. I gladly did so. I know that my story is represented clearly and truthfully. God was so good to us during the troubling times. As I read over my story this afternoon, tears came into my eyes because since I gave this story to Eva, my husband has gone on to be with Jesus. I miss him so much. I would gladly take care of him longer if God would let me. God is so good.

One True Vow - What a blessing!,

Need I say more. As a wife(of a wonderful husband, Richard)for 22 years and a mother(of two wonderful teenage sons Emile and Tyrone)I can truly say that I have been blessed by having read this book. Once again I was reminded that when we put God in the centre of our marriage and our family and we stand on His word - then no matter what we go through - He will get us through.
While reading, I constantly stopped to share some of the thoughts, passages and stories with Richard and I mentioned to him that this book was definitely one that I was going to add to my list of best read books and it was also one that needed to be shared. As God would have it, shortly after I had finished reading the book, a friend told me about her son and daughter in law who are having struggles in their marriage and guess what -I found the first person whom I could share this wonderful bit of inspiration with. Thank you so much, Eva Marie for your insight and all those who shared their lives with you so that you could give us this great collection of stories that we can use as a source of encouragement. Keep up the good work and God bless.

One True Vow,
By ... (Los Angeles, CA, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: One True Vow: Love Stories of Faith and Commitment (Paperback)
One True Vow: Love Stories of Faith and Commitment restores my faith in the institution of marriage. The individual stories in this book are not only entertaining, but heart wrenching as well. Many of these real-life couples have gone through trials and tribulations that most people couldn't even imagine. I found One True Vow a great read--a page turner--as I read each couple's true story of love and faith, along with discouragements, rejections, unfaithful spouses, deaths, empty nesters, rebellious teenagers in blended families, and how they overcame their difficulties and still remained married. I highly recommend One True Love for anyone married or thinking of getting married, and especially for those thinking of separation or divorce.I met and spoke to Eva Marie Everson during a women's retreat and found her to be a loving, warm person who truly cares about people. She has a strong, Biblically-based faith in God and is a fabulous speaker. Her southern charm and humor will not only engage you and draw you into her stories, but she will make you feel totally comfortable and at home. I highly recommend Eva Marie for speaking engagements such as retreats, writers' seminars, church groups, men's and women's groups. |
