FaithfulReader.com5 Stars Out Of 5January 7, 2010FaithfulReader.comAuthor Rick Johnson proves once again that he's not only adept at mentoring men, he's keenly aware of the dynamic differences between the sexes. In this fine book, Johnson offers men and women generous practical suggestions for rethinking and retooling their marital relationship. The author, with some humor and wit, shares what makes men uniquely male and what makes women uniquely female...and he does it so well that readers will find themselves thinking gratefully, "Mystery solved!" Johnson's text is encouraging and enlightening. Excellent resource for marrieds and singles alike.

Jael KenneyLachute,QCAge: 25-34Gender: female1 Stars Out Of 5Big disappointmentMarch 1, 2020Jael KenneyLachute,QCAge: 25-34Gender: femaleThis review was written for Becoming Your Spouse's Better Half: Why Differences Make a Marriage Great - eBook.My wife and I were disappointed with this book. The author has swallowed the bitter pill of evolutionary thinking, and often looks to fictional "caveman" story telling and secular psychology as his launching points, instead of starting from the Bible. The book felt like a watered-down version of Love and Respect. His theology is inconsistent, and we were both offended by the stereotyping in his descriptions of men and women. The book's advice is not universal, but seems aimed at an audience that didn't include us. Perhaps middle class Bible-belt Americans? As Canadians in a small town missionary context, we found it hard to relate to his advice on guns, or the assumed life style of large city churches. The best part was the epilogue on communication, when he was quoting extensively from a different book. He kept mentioning sex in every chapter, as if that was the only thing on his mind, and the only reason to follow any of the advice in the chapters, His advice on a wife's girlfriends was sad, as it basically advised driving his wife away since he didn't want to listen to her. How is that your advice for a deeper marriage?
There's much better marriage books out there. Feel free to skip this one.
