We read this book with a small couples group at church and I enjoyed it. Mine are acts of service and quality time. My husband’s are physical touch and words of affirmation.

It was fun to read it with a group one chapter at a time, great discussions each week. We also played games each week, the most fun was the newlywed game, although most of us have been married for more than a couple of years. We learned so much about our marriage.

(We also read the book His Needs Her Needs by Willard F. Harley, Jr. with this group.)

I think I know what mine are, but after you said that you also knew your, maybe I should read that book. I think mine are the same as Brody’s though….

Love you, Mom

Mine was equally quality time and words of encouragement. I personally can see them go hand in hand. It’s mostly like a spoken sincere desire to spend quality time with me.
Brody’s were physical touch and words of encouragement secondly. He loves hugs!

I’ve read this book as well. Like Annie, my first was Acts of Service (really simple, basic stuff ya know). And my second was Quality Time. Although I don’t have a spouse anymore, I still keep the lessons the Lord taught me through this book close to my heart.

My husband’s love language is words of encouragement. Mine is quality time.

Went through this book with a “young families” church group, and I really liked it, too.

My language is Acts of Service, followed closely by Quality Time. Ryan’s more of the other three! At least, knowing that, we can make the effort to communicate love to each other better.

Our pastor gave us the same advice. Marriage is not 50/50; it’s 100/100! So true.
