hi, i'm iffi. i watched fireproof long before my present relationship which is been going for more than two years. we love each other n r looking at a future together but that picture looks really blurry now. i have not seen him in a year because he works miles away from here. calls n messages are all we have to connect with each other. the distance has put a lot of strain on the relationship now we r almost strangers. he had a recent and major loss in his life that i think has made him distant from not just me but his friends, family and God. i still love him and in hope that i'm deluded, he loves me too(i haven't heard the words from him in a while tho). my calls don't get picked, my messages don't get replied. i have been loving him my way(which includes nagging and complaining). i know love in its true essence is selfless. i have chosen to love him God's way not for me but so he can find God Again. I'll start the love challenge today(alone) to love him selflessly. i'm here to be encouraged thru this journey cos transiting from my old ways to God's way is not easy on my flesh. but this flesh has to die for God to shine thru me to my baby. pray for me.

I've been with my husband for 5 years now we have two children. We are on the verge of divorce. Our marriage has become so ugly. So much disrespect, hate, broken trust. Constant arguments even in front of our children. I received this book last year & stared the first week & never finished it. This time around I need a miracle, I need and want God in our lives, I ask that he walks with me me every step of the way to help me restore my marriage. I have faith that this will change my life forever, I do not want to lose my husband & have a broken family. I came from a broken family & I don't want that for our children & I love my husband so much. I need to restore and rebuild what I have slowly broken. I need healing and so does he. I pray that this may be the answer to my prayers and that we can learn to love and respect each other like we once did and even more so. Today will be my first day & I really am committed to a new beginnings and gettingng to know God on a more intimate level.

My husband and I have been married almost a year,but together for 6,with a beautiful 4 year old and he has an older son from a previous marriage. Two days ago he sent me a text message that he wanted a divorce,no particular reason really,he told me that I wasnt healthy enough for him. I asked him for a chance to make this right, he told me no there wasnt anymore time,he just didnt love me any longer. I want to get my husband to fall in love with me again. He told me that there wasnt anyone else,but i did some research being mad and I found a number. It belongs to a girl he works with. He told me that they were just friends and she was someone to listen. I am at a loss right now, so I am turning to the love dare. I have tried my hardest to let god take control of this! I want my marriage to work so much its painful to go through this! Pray for my family and I'll pray for yours. Thank-you!

My husband and I have been married for 8 years as of this past August. In that time, we have endured 2 deployments (he's in the Army Reserve). We struggled in our marriage after the 1st deployment, but were able to get our marriage back on track. Everything seemed good after the 2nd deployment (he came home almost a year and a half ago), but lately we seem to be moving in different directions. Our arguments have escalated recently over a recent job offer he received (and accepted) that will require us to relocate and my family's less than stellar reaction. He has suggested marriage counseling and I am definitely on board. I will do anything at this point to fix our marriage-both for my husband and me as well as for our 3 kids. I am also starting the Love Dare. Today is Day 1.

My boyfiend and I have been together for 3 1/2 years now. We are in a really bad place now. Before we got into an official relationship we were great friends, now it seems like we wouldve been better just that " friends". I love him so much but for the past 3 years we argue all the time. We just recently had a little baby boy and he is 10 months old. I thank God everyday for the blessing that he gave us, but I dont know if this is going to work. He doesnt see me, he spends so much time at work trying to make everybody else happy, that he doesnt see that I am not happy. He blames everything on me and it's not fair, because I am not the only person in this relationship. I just want him to love me like he did before we got into a relationship. I want help. We watched this movie about 2 years ago, but I dont think that neither one us took it seriously. I really want us to work if thats what he wants too. I dont want to do this by myself.

Hi, I am starting love dare today. My boyfriend and I have been together for 14 years. It has been a battle. We have a daughter together. He has a son from a previous marriage. We planned on getting married before I had our daughter but once pregnant everything fell out of place. I go to church, he doesn't. We both know we should be married. But lately because of the many financially struggles, mainly him not working there is nothing but anger and resentment. I want the proposal, the wedding, the respect, the husband who goes to church and serves GOD. I didn't believe in unequally yolked until I actually lived it. There is no romance on either end only bitterness. I have been praying for him to be saved and slowly have noticed him giving GOD thanks and glorifying him on different occasions. I have to pray for him. He is my daughters dad. I hope to find the love and patience I once had for him and maybe save this relationship with GOD's annointing.

I started the love dare for one of two reasons, to know that I have done all that I could to help save my marriage from a nasty divorce, and to also find peace in my heart and sole. My husband and I have been together for over 17 years (married almost 15). We have had many moments in the past that have led to fights and arguments leaving me feeling empty and unloved. By all means I know that I am not perfect, but I do know that I deserve to be happy and loved unconditionally.

I'm lost. My heart ...heavy. I have been divorced for one year and 7 months. I didn't want the divorce. My 'husband actually filed. I never signed the papers. It did go thru as ..default. I love him still. We have a daughter. Would this book help?&

Today is our first day, well I emailed all if this to him...so its at least my first day. We have been married 4 years after a whirlwind romance and just 10 months of knowing each other. We got married and me and my kids moved to the post he was stationed at...And it started to unravel, I did not know the real him, But oh how I loved him... Where are we at today. I'm pregnant w our second child ( both conceived on b.c.) we are both in our mid 40's and if I never saw him again I would not complain.... That's not true... I feel like it at times, most all of the time. I have become so negitave and jadded...I'm hoping this love dare help reset some love and get rid the anger. Good luck to everyone... I'm not giving up.

I am starting the Love Dare today. I am currently engaged and have been for over a year. Recently things have been awful. My fiance and I seem to only get on each other's nerves. There is no chemistry there at all anymore. We have a daughter together and he has an older daughter from a previous marriage. There have been infidelity issues on his part. Several times. Some days I'm not sure why I am still with him. I know I love him and he is an amazing father. I do not remember the last time he did anything special for me, like call me during the day or take me out on a real date. I feel very hurt all the time when he chooses to put work ahead of our family time. I know that I have issues with trust and anger. I am hoping this dare will allow me to let those things go and treat him in a more loving and Christ-like way.

Hi, I been with my wife 4 year but only 1 of marriage. Im in the army and I cheated on my wife. I feel so a shame of my self. She is so beautiful always giving me the best of her. I turn cold to her yelling at her while she was pregnant of our son. I feel so bad. Now she ask me for the divorce and telling me that dont love me no more its been a month that I cry to her every day of that month because I dont want to loose my family. I cry and cry and I pray to god to help me. I start praying for her now and for us. But more bad new came in. She told me that in 2 to 3 months she will be leaving. I breakdown in tears. I beg her but I think I was just making worse. I calm down and she told me that if I really love her that I should make her fall in love with me again in the period of time. I turn my self to god. So now I'm waiting and waiting. And I pray that this book work in my life and in my family life

My name is Micheal Smith, and I base in USA...My life is back!!! After 2 years of Broken marriage, my husband left me with two kids . I felt like my life was about to end i almost committed suicide, i was emotionally down for a very long time. Thanks to a spell caster called Dr osoba, which i met online. On one faithful day, as I was browsing through the internet,I came across allot of testimonies about this particular spell caster. Some people testified that he brought their Ex lover back, some testified that he restores womb,cure cancer,and other sickness, some testified that he can cast a spell to stop divorce and so on. i also come across one particular testimony,it was about a woman called Sonia,she testified about how he brought back her Ex lover in less than 2 days, and at the end of her testimony she dropped Dr osoba 's e-mail address. After reading all these,I decided to give it a try. I contacted him via email and explained my problem to him. In just 48hours, my husband came back to me. We solved our issues, and we are even happier than before Dr osoba , is really a gifted man and i will not stop publishing him because he is a wonderful man...

I am soldier currently stationed over seas. I never looked much into god because every close call i said it was luck. Now i am not so lucky. As a 19yr old kid growing up on deployment changed the man my wife fell in love with. Infidelity,alcohol and no emotions drove us apart and now i am facing the worst nightmare a husband and father could dream of. I watched the movie once beforr amd my wife tried it but i turned the cold.shoulder not reading much into it. I have destroyed something so precious and now i am fighting for my family, and marriage. I am going to pick up the book and pray that it will.work with such distance between us. I am not going to.give up.

This is day one for my boyfriend and I. We have been together coming up on 1 year and even though we were great as friends we are struggling some as a couple. He wants to marry me and I want to marry him but infidelity has paralyzed us. There is still love there but the trust is the question. We accepted this challenge now to grow closer to God and one another and to see how strong we really are together. If its Gods will then once this challenge is over. We will know our fate as a couple and hopefully be engaged as we desire to be the Godly, right way and an inseparable team.

I just started the Love Dare today. My husband & I are coming up on our 2nd anniversary. Although we have both contributed to the problems in our marriage, the biggest hurdle has been his infidelity. Most people might find it odd that I would be the one doing the love dare and not him. But we can all improve as people, and i know that I have things i need to work on myself. I do not condone cheating in any way, but I do have a controlling, "always have to be right" nature about me, and maybe if i can prove to my husband that i am commited to this marriage, he will realize he is as well.

I got married to my beautiful bride 18 months ago. We got married fast and she was divorced with 2 children prior to me meeting her. I was not the best Husband, I was often loving one day and not the next, After about 6 months of marriage I threatened divorce but would never do anything about it. I have hurt her deeply and it saddens me so much now. I eventually pushed her away after 10 months and we have been separated since. For awhile she lived a few miles from home and we still dis dates and lots of things together. We still told each other that we loved each other. I wanted her to come home after the first month but she didn't trust me anymore. She has now since moved over 2000 miles away and now wants a divorce, She says she knows I have changed but she no longer wants this marriage that it was a mistake. She said she will file for divorce but hasn't to date because she doesn't have the money. She is upset with me because I do lots of nice things for her but she says I don't love her because I don't want to sign divorce papers and that if I really loved her I would let her go. I love her more then anything and I really believe in our marriage now that my eyes have been opened. I am on my second day but am just wondering how to really do this because the last time we talked she said don't ever contact me again in any way. How do I do this with her 2000 miles away and no communication?

this book is really a blessing to me. it always remind me to love my husband wholeheartedly in spite of imperfections and take care our sacred vow no matter what. This is God's instrument to strengthen my relationship to him more than yesterday. my love for him is going deeper and happier each day.

My husband and I have been together for 10 years, and married for almost 7. We have two children together, ages 8 and 2. My husband is bipolar/manic depressive but refuses to get any treatment for it. He works but is on short term disability right now, so he sits at home in the recliner watching TV all day, while I care for our children and keep the house up the best I can. We began attending church in 2011 and both served in different areas. He stopped going about 2 months ago, cut off all communication with his church friends and essentially with me.
I am tired of carrying the load of our household, our children and everything by myself, but I refuse to divorce. I have been praying a lot for strength and God's intervention with my husband. He loves me and our kids, but he himself is miserable. I couldn't tell you the last tie he complimented or even said something positive to me. I am doing this Love Dare as a means to show him that I will love him through this and stand by his side. I do as for prayer for us, as it is beyond exhausting but God has a plan for me, for us, and it is not divorce. I

So far I'm only on day 2 but this book is great. It is really making me realize some things. Like where my heart actually was I. Me and my wife's relationship. It wasn't in our marriage like it should have been. And now I'm paying for it. Hopefully the further I get into this book the more it makes me realize about where I have messed up. I'm not saying this book would magically bring us back together but make me a stronger husband the way I should have been from the start. I love my wife with the passion but I have slacked on showing her that I care, need her and also appreciate her. But it is already showing me some things where I have messed up.

You need to get this book "The Love Dare". You have to read it and commit to doing the entire 40 days. It took 32 days of commitment for things in my relationship to turn around but with God and this book, my entire world has changed for the better. Im going to warn you that it was not easy and there will be a lot of things you don't understand, but God is working behind the scenes and its amazing to look back now at exactly how God Answered every single one if my prayers. It's been 2 years since I completed the book and I can't tell you enough of how powerful prayer and trusting in God really is. Not only did God work in him through my prayers but he also strengthened me and helped start healing my heart in the process. You can do ALL things through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. He will give you the desires of your heart. I wish you the best of luck and will be praying that God gives you strength to get through this situation.
