Product Description

Beloved Christian psychologist Dr. James Dobson speaks honestly and openly about what love is and what it isn't, helping couples and dating singles understand the myths and reality of emotions. He addresses the joy and beauty of sex in marriage, and the destruction and heartbreak of sex outside of marriage. A true-or-false quiz, followed by brief discussions of each question and answer, emphasizes and explains the most common misconceptions of love. A learning/discussion section, containing questions and Scripture references to be used individually or in a group setting, follows the discussion on romantic love. Highlighted with callouts and a section entitled the "Interpretations of Impressions," this practical yet hard-hitting book ends with a poignant letter from Dr. Dobson to his beloved wife, Shirley.
