When I began to read Lynn Donovan and Dineen A. Miller's book; Winning Him Without Words - 10 Keys to Thriving in Your Spiritually Mismatched Marriage I was immediately engrossed.
Wow. This is really good stuff. I thought to myself, as I sipped my nonfat vanilla latte. I admit it. I pre-judged this book. I figured it was only for women married to non-believers. Gals who don't have husband's who share their same love for Jesus. These precious ladies usually sit alone or in the back of the church. Dropping of their kids at youth group and serving in many capacities...alone.
Except, Winning Him Without Words isn't only for these women. It's a phenomenal marriage book that has something for all of us who desire to love our husband's the way God calls us to.
I had the pleasure of meeting Lynn Donovan for the first time in 2007, at the She Speaks conference in North Carolina. Two California girls way out of their west-coast element. We clicked immediately. I still recall her sharing her heart's desire, to write a book for spiritually mismatched marriages. She hoped to encourage women who have walked miles in her unequally yoked shoes.
Humble. Kind. Funny. Adorable. I was smitten with Lynn.
Fast forward two years, Lynn and I were speakers at a blog conference in Florida. She is just as adorable in pajamas, by the way.
It is my honor to offer her ministry in book form, Winning Him Without Words - 10 Keys to Thriving in Your Spiritually Mismatched Marriage. If you'd like to win a copy, please leave a comment below. I'm sure Lynn would LOVE It if you Facebook'd and Twitter'd about it too.

I agree! Lynn's adorable! Joanne, thank you so much for sharing our book and your thoughts! So very blessed by your review. Excited for you and your book too! :-)
Thanks for the notice on a good marriage book. They are much needed. "Winning Him Without Words" might have a lot to say to us wordy women.
Wow, what an interesting book "Winning Him Without Words" sounds like it is. Pick me. I would love to have a copy
I would have not given this book a serious look because I'm married to a Jesus-loving man. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. I'm interested now.
I am definitely intrigued...I know several women working through this. It is heart breaking and inspiring at the same time.
I'm hoping I win. :) I need to learn a thing or three about inspiring my better half to love Jesus.
