Top Highlights

“Throughout the Bible, God uses the act of blessings to restore hope and life. A blessing is any good gift that gives a positive benefit.” (Page xiii)

“As a husband, your intent must be to show your wife the full extent of Christ’s love.” (Page xvi)

“The point is that, as God is in the blessing business (Hebrews 6:14). so He wants us to be in the blessing business. And if so … if we are to bless even those who curse us and persecute us (Luke 6:28; Romans 12:14; 1 Corinthians 4:12), how much more ought we to bless those we love most!” (Page xi)

“When God asks you to accomplish something, He also promises to help you accomplish it.” (Page xiv)

“Try praising your wife, even if it does frighten her at first.’” (Page ix)

Praise for the Print Edition

Two things Glenn and Jennifer don’t tell you about this little book. First, if you will follow it for even six to eight weeks, it will become habitual. And, when that happens, your marriage will be enriched immensely in an ongoing and cumulative way. Second, as you bless your wife, you’ll learn to bless additional persons, enriching other relationships. And, third, as your bless your wife, guess who also gets blessed? That’s right, you!
