Fireproof and the Love Dare Challenge

Yesterday, I had a very productive morning. I was up and at Walmart before 9am. Anyone who knows me knows what an accomplishment this is. I am *not* a morning person, and never even shower before 10 am. Walmart is 45 minutes away, so to be there before 9 is doing really well for myself. :)

Anyway, while at Walmart, I stopped in their book section at the front of the store. They had a big display for Fireproof. Hubby and I saw the movie when it was in the theater and loved it. (Thank you again, Holly!) I grabbed a copy of the movie and saw the Love Dare Book right next to it. It was available at a great price, so I went ahead and grabbed it, too.

With all of the post partum depression and everything else hubby and I have dealt with for the last few months, I've decided that I want to do the Love Dare Challenge. Only, I'm not going to tell hubby that I'm doing it. I want to see if he notices a change.

Now, a question for you. Would others of you like to join in and also do the Love Dare Challenge for your husband or wife? (If you don't know what the Love Dare challenge is about, Click here for more information.)

If a bunch of us would like to do this together, we can pick a specific date and start then. And, if you're also interested in blogging about your own Love Dare challenge, I can create a separate blog and make those interested authors on that blog. That way, we could follow each other's stories and see how the Love Dare Challenge works for each of us.

Please leave a comment on this post and let me know if you're interested. Or, if you'd like to remain anonymous and don't want to post a comment here, email me at angie (at) 5vinezmonkeys (dot) com. I can have the blog set up in no time, so just let me know if that sounds appealing to you.

Either way, I will be blogging about my own Love Dare Challenge experiences - either here or on a separate blog.

I want to hear your thoughts!

Angie- Doesn't your husband read your blog?

I would participate in the love dare, but it's hard for me not to LOL whenever I see/hear any kind of Christian marriage advice- especially after however many years in such a hardcore singles group where you were a sinner if you wanted to find someone. It's kind of automatic for me to NOT believe that they'd actually want me to have a good relationship with dh. Hope that makes sense. We all have our quirks. But, if you were doing something else, I would participate

Sorry for deleting the first post, I forgot the NOT, and it was kind of important.

Nope. Gene doesn't read it, and I'm hoping that the family that does won't say anything.

I'm sorry to hear that you won't participate, but I understand. Just don't put all of us into that category. Some of us really DO want marriages to succeed. ;)
