Things I Wish I'd Known Before We Got Married Free Audiobook Download by Gary Chapman
[Gary Chapman] is an author who has written a lengthy popular book about marriage. It is titled, 'The 5 Love Languages'. In the book, he describes how each person in the marriage needs to be met with love and respect. This includes being able to express themselves and also receiving praise and compliments. In order for this to happen, couples need to open up emotionally. There are five ways that people express their emotions: Physical touch (holding hands, hugging), Words of affirmation (compliments, telling someone what they did well), Quality time together (spending quality time doing something together), Acts of service (helping others out) and Gift giving (gifts).
Things I Wish I'd Known Before We Got Married by Gary Chapman is a book that has been around since 1995. It consists of a series of questions and answers about marriage. It was originally written as a self-help book, but it is now more commonly used as a wedding gift for newlyweds. Many readers enjoy the story as well as the advice in this little book.
Many couples who get married find it hard to share everything. What are some things that Gary Chapman wishes he had known before getting married?
I wish I had known before we got married that the things that I wanted, needed and expected from marriage would be different than what Gary Chapman describes in his book. My husband and I have found that our expectations led us to have a lot of difficulty when it comes to understanding each other's needs. Things are tough now, but we are working on it. The story is really an interesting one, and if you haven't read any of his books you should definitely check out this audiobook too.
Gary Chapman takes the listener on a thoughtful journey, exploring the things he wishes he'd known about marriage before getting married. He covers topics such as what it means to love your spouse, how to avoid becoming resentful over time, and how to know that you are truly in love.
The narrator is Chris Fabry who is the voice of hope and inspiration. The audiobook begins with what my wife has said to me many times in the past, "you are my hero." As I listen to him tell stories of individuals and relationships that have been transformed due to the power of forgiveness, I am struck by how much this man has changed my life.
