For Women Only
|
Back Cover Blurb: What’s going on in there? Ever been totally confused by something your man has said or done? Want to understand his secret desires and fears, his daily battles that you know nothing about? In a woman-to-woman conversation you’ll never forget, Shaunti Feldhahn takes you beneath the surface into the inner lives of men. This book is about the things we just don’t ‘get’ about guys. With findings from a groundbreaking national survey and personal interviews of over one thousand men, For Women Only is full of eye-opening revelations you need to not only understand the man in your life, but to support and love him in the way he needs to be loved. Grounded in biblical hope, you will discover how to love your man for who he really is — not who you think he is. |
The question we women ask or ponder is how we understand what is going on in our man’s head or heart.
This book is truly well worth reading to understand our beloved men and, like me, you will say, “Why didn’t I get this book 35 years ago?”. We have been studying Beloved Unbeliever and now study it in partnership with For Women Only, which is very current and eye-opening. It is a revelation into our men’s inner thought-life and needs.
I found it challenging and filled with biblical hope. This has enabled me to be a more supportive wife in the way he needs to be supported—not how I think he needs to be supported.
1 Peter 3 Wives and Husbands
1Wives, in the same way be submissive to your husbands so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over without words by the behavior of their wives, 2when they see the purity and reverence of your lives. 3Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes. 4Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight. 5For this is the way the holy women of the past who put their hope in God used to make themselves beautiful. They were submissive to their own husbands, 6like Sarah, who obeyed Abraham and called him her master. You are her daughters if you do what is right and do not give way to fear.
Shaunti has really helped unlock the question of how to understand our men in a very profound way. It has the potential to change you and your relationship. This is our heart cry, “Lord change me”. Some of the areas she touches on are:
Men need RESPECT—Men would rather feel unloved than inadequate and disrespected. Men want more SEX—Your sexual desire for your husband profoundly affects his sense of well-being and confidence in all areas of his life. There are five more areas. I have shared just two that have really impacted me and tied in with Beloved Unbeliever in the Chapter “Bedroom Ministry”.
I hope you enjoy the read as well as the challenge for the benefit of your relationship that honours God our Father.
