So, you know how I've not posted in...well, a while? I have a few good excuses, but instead of listing them, I'll just offer my apologies with a giveaway!
Laura Brotherson is a well-known author and educator about intimacy in marriage. I am very impressed with her book and how she really is able to relate to all sorts of issues concerning intimacy in marriage. I found myself saying, "Wow...that is SO true." about every 5 minutes while reading. The book is very insightful and is not just for couples with problems...it can help every marriage!
"And They Were Not Ashamed" is a book about physical intimacy and marital ONEness that is comprehensive, in-depth and frank, yet still respectfully reverent. It's the ultimate how-to handbook....power-packed with hope and help for creating a mutually fulfilling intimate relationship.
It's a book you definitely need to read for yourself and Laura has generously sponsored today's giveaway of one of her books, plus a talk on CD.
