LOVE DARE UPDATE

  1. Day 17: Love Promotes Intimacy- The dare is about keeping your spouses secret's in order to make them feel safe. Pray for them instead of sharing with others.
  2. Day 18: Love Seeks to Understand- The dare was to prepare a special dinner at home for you and your spouse. The purpose is to get to know your spouse better. Talk about things you normally would not discuss. You can always learn more about your partner. Benny and I made a really nice candlelit dinner together. We talked about our childhoods and how we felt about each other when we were so little. We asked each other the marital questions in the back of the book. I ask so many questions on a daily basis that I didn't learn many new things about Ben, but it was a wonderful time to just be together and talk. It was a GREAT dare!
  3. Day 19: Love is Impossible- The dare is to accept the Lord, Jesus Christ, as your personal savior. Ben and I have both already done this, but what a great chapter. We are all sinners and have no way of loving each other enough without the help of our Lord.
Love Dare has truly been an amazing experience for Ben and I. We have learned so much about the act of Love. Our relationship has grown by leaps and bounds over the past 19 days. I am so very Thankful for this book and would strongly recommend it to EVERY couple!
