I Choose You Today by Deb DeArmond - Review plus Facebook Party by Litfuse and Challenges


I received this book in exchange for a fair and  honest review

I Choose You Today by Deb DeArmond
ISBN: 9781426787966
Trade Paperback

Synopsis: Married for nearly 38 years, author Deborah DeArmond and her husband have made the spoken declaration, “I choose you today” a regular part of their communication. It’s when we least feel like saying it that we need to remind ourselves that love is a choice, not a feeling. I Choose You Today features 31 scriptural principles that support marriage and help couples develop healthy biblically based behavior.
Built on an introductory anecdotal story, each chapter has an inspirational takeaway of not only what to do, but how to begin applying the principles immediately. Thought provoking questions create talking points for couples to explore their own choices and experiences in each area serve to generate open dialogue of discovery.I Choose You Today is not a book of “shoulds,” but one of clearly identified choices that each individual can make to grow their marriage and align it with the word of God. Every saying ends with a conventional wisdom quote.
My review: This was an interesting book to read. I thought the author's writing style was very easy to read. This would be an encouraging book for all married couples to read - whether you are newly married of have been married for 25 years. There is quite a bit of religious aspects in this book but if you are not very religious you can still get a lot out of this book. A few of the things mentioned in this book my husband and I already do like sending texts to each other. It is just a bright spot in your day when you get a random text from someone you love. Another thing I liked was how each chapter starts with a story. The questions at the end of each chapter will also make you stop and think about things. This is a book I will read more than one time. I recommend this book to all married couples.
