Another great read from Karen Kingsbury, but in a bit size short story that I was able to finish in less than an hour. For those who love the Baxter family, especially the family matriarch Elizabeth, this short story is a fantastic read for anyone who is married or contemplating marriage. Written with so much truth, interspersed with nuggets of scripture and with the sweet backdrop of the epic love story of John & Elizabeth backstory, this book was a quick read. It also contained a lot of fabulous and practical advice for loving a spouse well and enduring difficult times based on biblical truths for a modern day marriage.

I wish this came in print form! I would give to every couple getting married.. and then again on every anniversary following a baby birth or other life changing event.

These are very important things to remember and practice.

Loved this book. It was a quick read and had some good gems. I would consider buying it as a wedding gift tagalong, honestly. Good advice, no matter how long you’ve been married.

Great information

This short book is great, it reminds us how to keep our marriages sacred and healthy. I have learned these brfore, but this was a great reminder

[Paula]

A sweet little guide that every married couple should have as a reminder of real life wisdom and advice that will bring and keep love in every marriage.

The real life marriage advice from a fictional character of one of Karen Kingsbury’s book could not be better. A reminder that by keeping God first ….loving God more than your spouse…you will always stay humble enough to love your spouse more than humanly possible. This will help you have a beautiful, God-intended marriage.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

As someone who has read all of the books including the Baxter’s I enjoyed this short e-book. This list of secrets to a happy marriage is mentioned in a few books, but this a close-up. An easy, encouraging read that left me knowing I have a few things to work on in my own marriage. I appreciated the wise words and scripture.

A happy marriage

Wonderful scriptural words of wisdom that we all can refer to over and over to make our marriages more like what God envisioned them to be as we seek to love each other like Christ first loved us.

[Vanessa]

[Sara]

less of a story, but great marriage advice! would be great to have a print copy without the little bit story thrown in, to gift to people not in the Baxter family universe.

[Samantha]

This is a great bok

[Heather Banks]

How I wish this was a handbook that we were given at the beginning of our marriage 16 years ago. These 10 "secrets" to a happy marriage are truly divinely inspired and well written by Karen Kingsbury. From beginning to end, each time I read this book, I am challenged in the way I handle my marriage. I'm happy to say I've learned many of these 10 secrets myself through prayer and studying the Word. But this is a beautiful way to lay them out for a study together with your spouse. I think every couple should receive a copy of this book at their wedding. Well done, once again, Karen!

[Alicia Fannin]

This book was such a wonderful, encouraging read! It offers wonderful tips that I want to remember and I also want to reread this every year or so! Such good marriage advice!

[jodie Elaine reagan]

This should be given to any newly married couple! Great advice

This book should be given to any newlyweds. Great advice for all marriages! Our marriages would definitely benefit from this solid teaching on a subject that the world seems to hate now adays. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
