About the book: 

I Choose You Today: 31 Choices to Make Love Last (Abingdon Press, January 2015)

Married for nearly 38 years, author Deborah DeArmond and her husband have made the spoken declaration, “I choose you today” a regular part of their communication. It’s when we least feel like saying it that we need to remind ourselves that love is a choice, not a feeling. I Choose You Today features 31 scriptural principles that support marriage and help couples develop healthy biblically based behavior.

Built on an introductory anecdotal story, each chapter has an inspirational takeaway of not only what to do, but how to begin applying the principles immediately. Thought provoking questions create talking points for couples to explore their own choices and experiences in each area serve to generate open dialogue of discovery. I Choose You Today is not a book of “shoulds,” but one of clearly identified choices that each individual can make to grow their marriage and align it with the word of God. Every saying ends with a conventional wisdom quote.

My thoughts on I Choose You Today:
 
I have to start off by saying that I have read a book by this author before.  I really enjoyed her Related by Chance, Family by Choice book and knew that I would want to read this book as well.  This time we focus on marriages.  In the era of such reading as 50 Shades of Grey we need some good wonderful traditional marriage support.  Here we have it in this book.
 
I really enjoyed this book.  I agree that each and every day we have the choice on what we will choose and what we will do.  Each day we choose to love our spouse and our children.  When they are the most unloveable we’re not saying I choose to think of you as unloveable and walk away.  No we’re still saying I choose to love you today and in choosing that I now move forward to choose how I’m loving you today.   
 
I think for me it translates to loving my husband and my children as well.  It’s not just about my marriage to me when I read the book.  It’s about all those important relationships that we need to take daily and work on them.
