Love and Respect: 
6:30-7:30 pm starting Wednesday, January 18 in the Music Room.
What is Love and Respect? We believe love best motivates a woman and respect most powerfully motivates a man. Research reveals that during marital conflict a husband most often reacts when feeling disrespected and a wife reacts when feeling unloved. Though we all need love and respect equally, the felt need differs during conflict, and this difference is as different as pink is from blue!  Each session centers on two concepts: love and respect. These two words surface in social research and the Bible (Ephesians 5:33) as the two key ingredients for a successful marriage.
A workbook will be available for $10.
