Love That Lasts is a short (150 page) primer on what a Godly, Biblically-based marriage should look like. It covers the role of husbands and wives, the goal of communication (relational intimacy), the content of communication (grace and truth), the heart of conflict (and how to restore communication), and concludes with keeping romance and sex alive and fresh.
For its length, the book covers a lot of ground and is solid, insightful, and encouraging. It oscillates between theological elements of marriage (as presented in Scripture) and tips for improvements (as learned by experience in the authors' 28-year marriage). It's certainly not a comprehensive relationship book, but it's a good start. I recommend it to Christians and non who want to learn more about God's view of relationships and His intent/desire/design for them. Contrary to what some believe Christianity teaches, God's directives are neither outdated nor demeaning to either party. Read this book and see why.
