Love & Respect by Emerson Eggerichs

Product Details

About the Book

Love & Respect is Dr. Emerson Eggerichs's New York Times bestselling marriage guide, built around a simple but transformative insight drawn from decades of pastoral counseling and biblical study: while both men and women deserve both love and respect, in the midst of conflict, a woman's driving need is love, and a man's driving need is respect. When either of these core needs goes unmet, Eggerichs argues, couples fall into what he calls the "crazy cycle" — a destructive pattern where a husband withdraws love, causing his wife to withdraw respect in turn, or vice versa, each response feeding the other's frustration.

Drawing his central framework from Ephesians 5:33 — "each one of you must also love his wife, and the wife must respect her husband" — Eggerichs combines over three decades of marriage counseling experience with scientific research and biblical teaching to help couples break this destructive cycle. The book is structured in three parts: first explaining why marriages sour when this fundamental love-respect dynamic breaks down, then offering detailed, practical guidance for husbands on how to love their wives well and for wives on how to respect their husbands, even in moments when their partner doesn't seem to "deserve" it. Rather than teaching unconditional love alone, Eggerichs makes the case that unconditional respect matters just as much — a message he argues has been largely missing from conversations about marriage, and one that has resonated with millions of couples, from those in crisis to the happily married looking to strengthen their bond.
