Book Description

Publication Date: January 10, 2003

Pillow Talk for Couples is a devotional gift book with a twist. It offers one month of devotionals for couples to share together at bedtime. Each day will have a short story, a question to talk about, a verse to sleep on and a good night prayer. It's an interesting, funny, positive, interactive book designed to improve communications in couples. "You will sleep more soundly, diminish needless quarrels and feel more in tune with each other.

Pillow Talk for Couples is designed as something that both men and women will enjoy during the month of the book's use. The Parrotts' focus on communication rather than bedtime activity-sleep!

Les and Leslie Parrott write yet another thought provoking book. The Parrotts are a husband-wife team serving as official Marriage Ambassadors during the 1990's in Oklahoma. Their popular book, Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts, has also been transformed into a curriculum and seminars.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good End-of-Day Devotional for Christian Marriages, May 14, 2005

This review is from: Pillow Talk for Couples: Drawing Closer Before the Lights Go Out (Hardcover)

This title is a very good devotional for Christian marriages. It does not delve into deep theology, but that direction is not the intent of the authors. Instead, they desire to see Christian couples drawn closer to one another and to encouraged in their commitment to their marriages.

I would have given this book five stars, but the Parrotts simply stopped too soon. Several more days worth of devotionals would have made this title an even better purchase. The ideas are excellent, but there are simply not enough of them. Still, it is a good investment for anyone involved in a Christian marriage.

My husband and I received this for our bridal shower. It was the best gift we could have received. We read it every night before we go to bed and have even started over again after we finished it the first time. Les and Leslie are excellent and this book has real life application and reallys gets communication going!
I reccomend this for every married couple!!!

Not as good as the many other "couple" books we read, but it is set up to read one each night which is a short read, so it is easy if you're looking for something short to read with each other every night.
