Courageous...


GIVEAWAY!





I thought I would offer these three books up as a set since they really work well together. For my reviews on each individual book see my previous three blogs. One thing I wanted to mention was how unique The Resolution for Men and The Resolution for Women are. Very distinctive from each other which is somewhat understandable since they are written by different people but I appreciated that the approach was different as well.

The women's devotional is written in first person, very much like a conversation you'd have with a girlfriend and the resolutions emphasize nurturing the family. The men's on the other hand is in third person -- here's the facts, here's the problems, here's how we can fix it. The women are given thought-provoking questions at the end of each chapter; the men are given a challenge and a memory verse. And many of the men's resolutions encompass protecting the family. I love how the authors dared to celebrate the difference between the sexes in this way without worrying about the world's idea of political correctness.

This set would be great for a couple in any stage of their relationship but I think it would make a nifty and unique shower or wedding gift. And for singles -- well, it makes for some interesting and thought-provoking reading and might just help you articulate what you are ultimately looking for in a future husband.
