Everything in our busy world seems aimed at pulling marriages apart. But it doesn't have to be that way. Fifteen minutes spent together in devotion and prayer each day will strengthen a marriage like nothing else, and Bob and Emilie Barnes have made it easy to do in this bestselling devotional (more than 157,000 copies sold) that has a fresh, new cover design.

In just 15 minutes, couples can find spiritual refreshment as they explore God's majesty and all-sufficient power. At the same time, they will discover practical help in: the art of communication the joy of forgiveness the challenge of building each other up by serving the fun of being together and with others

With encouragement, grace, and the experience of more than 35 years of marriage, Bob and Emilie will help readers grow in their love for each other and the Lord.

I believe that daily devotions with your spouse are a great idea. However, there are much better books out there. There were a few topics which were useful to us, but following the book from beginning to end was not practical because many of the devotions deal with specific topics which don't necessarily apply to all couples. Also, in order to completly cover the lessons, it took us far more than 15 minutes. We spent more than 30 minutes on most of the ones we read and didn't feel like we really completed them. Another issue which bothered me is that there are not discussion questions each day. Generally they suggest you write about a topic in a journal. That style may be great for some but the lack of discussion questions left us feeling like there was something missing.

If you want a good couples devotion book, consider James Dobson's "Night Light." Reading it was one of the best things we have ever done for our marriage.
