A LETTER TO OUR READERS
We’ve always enjoyed this quote from comedian Woody Allen: "I took a speed reading course and read War and Peace in twenty minutes. It involves Russia."
Ever felt like that after reading a book? We have. Sometimes it becomes so easy to focus on finishing a book that we miss its main message. What you hold in your hand is a kind of insurance policy against that happening while you are reading Love Talk. But it’s more than that.
Books let us shake hands with new ideas. But these ideas remain as flat as the printed page if we do not apply them to our lives. For this reason, we have designed workbooks—one for men and one for women—that will help you incorporate into your relationship the new lessons you learn while reading. And we’ve designed them to be used either individually or in a small group setting.
For Individual and Couple Study
As you read through the main book, you will discover places where it points you to do an exercise in these workbooks. Most of them are designed for you to take about five or ten minutes on your own to complete a few questions or to take a brief self-test and then compare your results with your partner (which is why it’s important to each have your own workbook). Or it may give you an exercise to do together so you can put a new principle into practice. This is where real learning occurs. This is where new ideas become more than acquaintances; they begin to make a positive difference in your marriage.
We have used these exercises with countless couples, both in our counseling practice as well as in our seminar settings. They are proven. They work. And that’s why we are passionate about you doing them as you read through our book.
While there is no one right way to use these workbooks, we suggest
