At the center of the new movie Fireproof is The Love Dare, a book that the movie’s main character is challenged to read to help his failing marriage.  The book is a 40-day challenge that offers daily reading, Scripture, and a dare, all aimed at strengthening the love and bond of the couple.

This book is for all couples, whether your marriage is strong or on the rocks, whether newlyweds or seasoned veterans.  My husband and I will be celebrating our 6th anniversary soon, and I would say that we have a fairly strong marriage.  However, we are both realistic in that there is always room for improvement.

My plan for reading this book is to do the reading myself and share the daily dare with my husband over dinner.  Hubby is currently a full-time grad student in addition to working full-time, so I know that he does not have time to read another book right now.  We are looking forward to our nightly conversation!

I would like to challenge you to buy the book and read along with me.  I will post weekly recaps, and we can discuss what we are learning at The League.  Won’t you join me?
