A great book for ALL women to read!!!
|
I just finished this great book. It's called FOR WOMEN ONLY and it's by Shaunti Feldhahn. It's an easy read and very informative. The subtitle is 'What You Need to Know About the Inner Lives of Men'. The author did an extensive survey of men and lays out the results and expands on what the men said in the survey. She does focus on the Christian point of view and shares what Christian men said in this survey. It is an eye-opening book!!
My husband of 17 years shared with me 2 years ago (right after our 15th anniversary ) that he has struggled with a SA for more than 25 years! He hid this quite well from me throughout our marriage. He had developed quite a fantasy life and the enemy had even taken his thought life to fantasies of same-sex. I was appalled and shocked, to say the least. When he told me, he was afraid I would tell him to get out of the house but I knew I made a commitment before God that divorce was NOT an option. It has taken us 2 years but we are back on the path of happiness and fulfillment in our marriage. We both did LOTS of reading and praying during these past couple of years and yet this book has been the best book I've read of all of them! But I do know that 1-2 years ago, this book would have gone over my head as I wasn't ready to deal with all of this. I spent a lot of time in a self-pity party. God has been faithful to answer my prayers - in HIS time - and brought this book to my attention at just the right time. He is SO good!!! I am now passing it through my family and friends and will pass it to my pastor and his wife too as I think this would make an excellent book to build from for a ladies Sunday school class. Well...enough rambling. Just had to share this book with you and if you feel led....be sure to read it for yourself!!!
Until next time....
