The Love Dare

For those of you who've never heard of it, there is a book out based on Christian principles called The Love Dare. The authors are Steven Kendrick and Alex Kendrick with Lawrence Kimbrough. I've never heard of any of these guys until now, so I can't say much about them. The book is referenced in a movie called Fireproof which I also have no knowledge of. This is what the website says about it:

"In the movie FIREPROOF, a couple dares to rescue their choking marriage from the flames of divorce and temptation using The Love Dare book as a guide. Now you can take the experience of the film one step further with your own copy of The Love Dare book. This daily devotional steers you through the fiery challenge of developing a strong, committed marriage in a world that threatens to burn it to the ground."

I was in Books-a-Million this past week in Southaven and was searching for a book that my husband might like. The choices were overwhelming so I decided to look for a devotional that would replace the one that his mother gave to us once we're done with it. So, the store really needs to work on the organization. Nothing was in it's place. I had all but given up when I walked to the end of the aisle and saw The Love Dare. I decided I would get it and we could give it a go once we were done with the devotional we're currently reading.

Tonight, we were just laying in the bed and I grabbed it from the night stand and started reading it. It has a small section for the person to journal their experiences. Alas, there's not a lot of room. Since we're working on the book together, I thought it would be better if we had a separate space to log our journey; and that is why you are here reading this now (hopefully!).

We decided that we didn't mind sharing this journey publicly. I mean, if it can help someone else, why not? So, this is the beginning of our journey on The Love Dare.
