Reseñas de la Crítica

“Hendrix provides much insight into how spouses can mature through one another.” (Booklist)

“The best program I’ve seen for using the love/hate energy in marriage to help a couple heal one another and to become whole together.” (T. George Harris, editor in chief, American Health)

“I know of no better guide for couples who genuinely desire a maturing relationship.” (M. Scott Peck, author of The Road Less Traveled)

Life Changing

The concepts that are taught in this book opened my eyes to so many things in my life, and I feel like I have a much better understanding about my own decisions in the past and what I can do to strengthen my relationships going forward. I truly think that if these concepts were taught in school and were common knowledge, more people would have loving and healthy relationships. I’ll be reading this book many times over my lifetime to really learn the concepts and put them into action.

I do understand why some people think the authors performance could be better, but I still liked hearing them read their own book. If you don’t love it, I recommend grabbing a paper copy. The book is to insightful and helpful to miss.

One of the most interesting books I've ever read

This book has deeply moved me. I'm single but the insights about recognizing others as individuals and gaining healing through loving others resonated. I'm starting to listen to it again!

Very informative

This is a great book that helps you work on your marriage and yourself. I've found that the exercises, affirmations, and dialog used with couples counseling as a plus are really helpful for me even if my wife isn't fully committed to using the book yet.

Read Before Marriage!!!

This is a great book. I wish I had read it some much earlier. Please read if you are or plan to be intentional about marriage.

Just because you write it doesn't mean you should read it

The performances detract from the outstanding content - I had to buy the hard copy to get through the material because the material is that good and the performances are that bad. May want to redo the audio with professional voice actors to make it a truly excellent resource for couples to listen to together.

strong content

this couple knows about many issues we all face. great advise and direction to help get to a more loving place.

Excellent Relationship Book

My partner and I read this book together and we both enjoyed and appreciated the content; we found it to be relatable and validating of our experiences as a couple. We also appreciated that both of the authors participated in reading the book. Highly recommend to all couples. A wealth of wisdom.

Helen

I get that Harville wanted to give Helen her proper dues for the contribution she made to the book but she is really difficult to listen to.. Id prefer if it was just him.

The 8yr old inside of me

Wow very profound book and inward perspective. I consider myself a very conscious being but did not do delve into some of the childhood spaces that were highlighted in this great book. it challenged me to look even deeper to become self aware of what type of person i could attract and. identify the reasons why. i so appreciated this book in becoming the best version of myself
