More favorite books on marriage recommended by our readers…

Christine – The First 90 Days of Marriage is great!

Joelle – I’ve enjoyed reading Romancing Your Husband. It’s an excellent book with great ideas for holistic romance in marriage. (I’d say it’s better for married readers.)

Rita – I liked Intended For Pleasure. I ought to track it down again. (Someone lent it to us after we got married.)

Jessica – One book that has given me so much understanding of my husband and how I can be an encouraging wife is For Women Only by Shaunti Feldhahn. I would love to see a review of it on here sometime!

Miriam – My all-time favorite book that’s been helpful in my marriage is Created to be His Helpmeet by Debi Pearl. Especially when I’m confused or frustrated about something in my marriage, it’s an awesome resource to help set my priorities straight.

Christine – The Act of Marriage by Tim Lahaye. It was a very good, practical book on sex. I would strongly suggest that engaged couples read it before they get married, and that married women refer to it. Lies Women Believe by Nancy Leigh DeMoss. This book is not necessarily a book just for married women, but for women in general. I found it very helpful in helping me deal with things in my life that needed to be dealt with. God still uses that book in my life.

Deanna – One of my favorite marriage books is Sacred Marriage!

Mary Jo – My favorite marriage book thus far has been The Excellent Wife. I read through most of it twice and have been reading it through leisurely a third time. It is full of doctrinally sound, biblical encouragement.

Lucy – I would say that a book that blessed my marriage was The Excellent Wife by Martha Peace. We also read Dr. Ed Wheat’s books before we married and they were very helpful with the marriage bed side of things.

Danae – My husband and I really enjoyed reading Love That Lasts, by Gary & Betsy Ricucci. We read it together partly during engagement and partly after we got married and it really helped us go over a lot of key issues together. And then a book that I personally appreciate is Let Me Be a Woman by Elisabeth Elliot. It’s one of my very favorite books on womanhood; not so much specifically on marriage, but it addresses so many factors that are an important part of my marriage. It’s been a real blessing to me, each time I’ve read it.

Jennifer – My husband and I have been married for 10 months. We found The Act of Marriage by Tim and Beverly LaHaye to be a very practical help. The book was a gift from my dad and we read it to each other on our honeymoon! Love and Respect also helped us understand each other and we read most of it during our engagement.
