Love Unending

November 14, 2016
In her second book, blogger and writer Thompson (Hope Unfolding) challenges mothers to commit to loving their husbands like they did when they first fell in love. She urges women to think back to the beginning of their relationships, a time when their hearts still raced to get a text message or a phone call, they endlessly brainstormed little ways to show their love, and they never chose Facebook or Netflix over some quality time together. The book is structured as a 21-day challenge, and each chapter focuses on different facets of marriage that many women might struggle with and actionable steps they can take to cultivate their relationship with their husbands. Thompson shares personal stories of her struggles as a wife and mother and the lessons she’s learned throughout her marriage and her own 21-day challenge. Each chapter also includes a short applicable Bible verse, a prayer, and prompts for journaling and reflection. Though directed primarily at mothers, Thompson’s stories and advice will resonate with many married women who want to reconnect with their husbands and discover how “walking in love can be far more beautiful than falling in love.”
