Quick read. Basic, sound tips.

Author Lisa Jacobson’s 100 Words of Affirmation Your Husband Needs to Hear is filled with short, basic tidbits that wives may overlook in the busy-ness of everyday living. It’s the complement to 100 Words of Affirmation Your Wife Needs to Hear and the set can be used by married couples who’re looking to amp up their Godly marriages.

Most affirmations are accompanied by a short description of how they applied to the author’s marriage. Many of us aren’t ‘good’ at actually saying the words, so affirmations are often bypassed on a daily basis. But it's important for spouses to hear affirmations to feel good about themselves and their marriage.

100 Words of Affirmation Your Husband Needs to Hear can be used as a daily prompt to keep a strong marriage on track or help bring life to a stagnant or failing marriage. I believe that using the pair together would be a useful tool for a couple aiming to pull their marriage together.

How this book affected me:
As a book reviewer, I recently read the author’s 100 Ways to Love Your Husband also accompanied by 100 Ways to Love Your Wife. This book set is very similar in nature to 100 Affirmations. If I had to recommend one, it would be the more versatile 100 Ways to Love Your Husband.

Who would enjoy this book:
This book might make a good gift for a newly engaged or married wife or the pair of books for a newly married couple or as wedding gifts. It can also serve as a reality-check for wives struggling within their marriage or those who want to improve a good marriage.

I really loved this bite sized book. It wasn't your normal marriage advice book that you read chapter by chapter and feel overwhelmed with all of the stuff, or worse that it wasn't specific to you and your marriage. This was like a "to-do" list, or rather a 'to say" list. As I read each affirmation and the short synopsis for each one, I realised that a beautiful marriage is built with intentionality and with every word spoken. Day after day at trying these words on my unsuspecting husband, I could tell he was genuinely pleased, and that he felt loved. This is a beautiful list of things that we should all be saying to our husbands.
