Love That Lasts by Jefferson Bethke & Alyssa Bethke Book Summary

In Love That Lasts, New York Times bestselling author of Jesus > Religion Jefferson Bethke and his wife, Alyssa, expose the distorted views of love that permeate our culture and damage our hearts, minds, and souls.

Drawing from Jeff’s “prodigal son” personal history and from Alyssa’s “True Love Waits” experience, the Bethkes point to a third and better way. Blending personal storytelling with biblical teaching, they offer readers an inspiring, realistic vision of love, dating, marriage, and sex.

Young people today enter adulthood with expectations of blissful dating followed by a romantic, fulfilling marriage only to discover they’ve been duped. They learned about love and sexuality from social media, their friends, Disney fairy tales, pornography, or even their own rocky past, and they have no idea what healthy, lifelong love is supposed to be like. The results are often disastrous, with this generation becoming one of the most relationally sick, sexually addicted, and divorce ridden in history.

Looking to God’s design while drawing lessons from their own successes and failures, the Bethkes explode the fictions and falsehoods of our current moment. One by one, they peel back lies such as,
the belief that every person has only one soul mate,that marriage will complete you,and that pornography and hook-ups are harmless.

Awesome book. It is wisdom packed, and gracefully written. It features values and concepts related to love and relationship, and the authors story is told in a way that is straightforward and so honest and real, everyone can relate somehow. From the stories, to how they split the chapters, to the topics, and even the language used, everything is so captivating. To be honest, I cried while reading the introduction lol I also laughed out loud a few times throughout my reading. Yes, it's that good. I got hooked and binged read the entire book. No shame here :) It's interesting to read how the authors expose their own hurts and baggage, and delightful to find out how they turn to God for healing and redemption. By the end of the book I got left with a feeling of hope and encouragement, understanding God's Love for me, and His plans for my relationships. I wish I had read this book before I started dating. It would have saved me a lot of tears. I'm glad and blessed to have received an advanced readers copy from the publisher though.

Amazing Book For Couples. Amazing book for couples. Jeff and Alyssa are so transparent and this makes it even more relatable. Highly recommend this book!

Amazing book!. I was fortunate to be one of the people lucky enough to receive an advanced copy. The instant I began reading I couldn't put the book down. Throughout the book, Jeff and Alyssa are so open and honest. The authors are incredibly relatable and you will love reading the messages they have to share no matter your relationship status!

Can't wait, super excited!! 😄. I have been following Jeff and Alyssa for a while now! Myself being in a relationship and having a child, I look up to these two as a couple and as parents. I can't wait to read this book and I'm excited to see what else I can learn from them.

Must Read!. I was so blessed to receive an advanced reader copy from the publisher and I am so happy I did. This book was such an easy read! I didn't want to put it down. I love how real and deep Jeff and Alyssa got. They were not afraid to share real things they went through on their path to love and marriage. It was a perfect book especially for the season of life I am in. I'm currently dating and have lots of questions. My story is similar to Jeff and Alyssa's and it just gave me so much hope. I am going to read it again because it was that good and helpful! They offered many new perspectives I didn't already have. They encouraged me in my relationship that I'm in now. It's a great read for single, dating, engaged or married folks. I definitely recommend it!

A Treasure!. A book to treasure for generations. Jeff & Alyssa are so authentic & candid about their lives before & after marriage and tell us how God is the author of their lives. Beautiful book! Love it! Few of my favorite quotes from the book. "If you want to know what love looks like, look to Jesus". "Marriage is crazy good, crazy hard and crazy fun".

Can’t stop reading over and over again. The book from the beginning is so good. Seriously so good. I just bought it yesterday evening and I’m almost finishing it up this morning. It kept me on the edge of my seat every single page. There were not one page I did not like or did not agree with. I bought this book just when I needed it the most. Now I know that I never was alone. Thank you Jeff and Alyssa for sharing your imperfect love which is perfect. So excited for the next book!!! Please never stop writing!

Must read!!. This book is an amazing book. I was able to relate to so much of what both authors wrote. The authors are a married couple who put their raw vulnerability out there. I definitely recommend this to anyone and everyone. It is more than worth the money. I was lucky and blessed to receive an advance copy of this book!

Love That Lasts. This book was relatable, down to earth, and completely gospel centered. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and I hope to share it with those around me!

Marriage my Priority. Excited to get this book and keep marriage a priority in my life. Taking the time to work on my marriage will truly make a 'Love That Lasts' !

Can't wait!. I have heard so much about this couple and this book and I'm so so excited to purchase it and read it!

Wow. What a wonderful book for all married couples

!!!!. So excited to read this book! This couple is very inspirational & they know what they are talking about! I would recommend checking this book out !!

EXCITED for this Release!!. I absolutely love the work Jeff and Alyssa are doing to foster healthy and lasting marriages. I am excited to read this book and know that like their others, it won't disappoint.

Amazing book, Awesome couple, Outstanding message, Raw honesty.. This book is amazing. The book gives advice in a more subtle storytelling way. Through the story of Jeff and Alyssa's relationship and experiences you learn some very Godly advice. The authors are very relatable, hilarious and open, that makes reading the book even that more enjoyable. This book is about dating, engagement, marriage, and sex. Even if you aren't in that period of your life it holds good advice on what is to come. Jeff and Alyssa are so open and vulnerable about their stories that it leads you to open up to yourself about where your heart is. This book is a must read for everyone. No matter if you are single, dating, engaged, newly married, or married for years I feel like there is advice in this book for anyone and everyone. "I received an Advance Reader Copy from the publisher."

Read It!. I was blessed to receive an advanced reader copy from the publisher and I'm so thankful I did. I love this book! I'm getting ready to read it a second time. I'm excited to start the Love That Last Experience with my husband since reading this book. Jeff and Alyssa are so real and honest about waiting and dating and marriage and everything in between. They speak truth about how ultimately your relationship is about the Lord and serving him together. As a woman and a mother I believe everyone should read this book. Men, women, pre-teens through adulthood. From a personal stand point I wish I had been able to read this book at 13 and 18 and again at 25. It's an easy read so if you're considering reading it just go for it. You won't regret it!

Love!. An amazing book from an amazing couple!!

So stoked!. My wife and I love Jeff and Alyssa's books and the way that their writing aligns with scripture. Even though this book isn't out yet I can already tell it's going to be one of our favorites!

Love That Lasts- Awesome Book!. I am so happy that I received an Advance Reader Copy from the publisher for "Love That Lasts". In the years past, I have read all of Jeff and Alyssa's work, so I am quite familiar with each of their stories and a little bit of their writing styles. They are so relatable with each and every word they write. I, personally, am not a huge reader, so for someone like me to quickly read a book, it speaks volumes! What I love about their work, especially this book, is how I can read their words and personally connect with them, whether that's from past experiences, current, or ones that can better prepare me for the future. Newly married, two years in, I think it's always smart to keep yourself in check! There's always things we can learn from and areas we can grow in, Love That Lasts will encourage you to search your heart, give you such an awesome perspective on how the past shapes who you are and your future, and really really prepare you and your heart for love. I am so thankful for both of their words, and so pleased that they finally did a book together (other than their 31 ways to love your spouse challenge). Their openness, rawness, passion, insight, and wisdom has really made an impact on my perspective on love, marriage, and sex. The dating season for myself has come and gone, and not all of it was very pretty, and I am so thankful to know that I am not alone in all of that!! Jeff and Alyssa are going to touch so many through this book and I am so excited for it to get into the hands of many!! A must read!! Full of emotion, truth, wisdom, and HOPE!! There is nothing better than reading a book and feeling as though you are sitting with the person, sharing those thoughts face to face- this book does just that! Young, old, single, married, dating, divorced, whatever and whomever you may be, this book will captivate you and pull on your heart.... and you may just learn a thing or two about God, love, dating and marriage! This book will stretch you and cause you to do much reflection, and for some, like myself, bring a sense of thankfulness of all of life's lessons and seasons! I am so eager to continue to integrate many things into my marriage to keep it healthy, to set an example and to make it last. After all, don't we all want love that lasts?.....

GET IT. I really appreciate the open, honest, and thoughtful way Jeff and Alyssa worked through their past, their relationship, and the present focus of the Gospel in relationships. As a marriage and family therapist I am always looking for practical resources to provide my couples and this book has earned a spot on my shelf. I was blown away by the transparency and healing my own heart received from this blessing of a book. I will acknowledge that I do not agree with everything in the book. And due to the nature of the content, sometimes it can seem repetitive (even more so if you've read other parts of their work) as they take turns telling their story and processing their thoughts. However, I do not find that worthy of knocking a star off the rating! I even preordered another copy! Favorite quote: "The place sin entered the world first was a marriage. It's as if the evil one knew how important a marriage is to God's story. And now that very image that perfectly reflected the goodness and graciousness of their Creator became a broken mirror. They distorted the image, and in a deep irony, the fracturing of our parents' humanness was passed down through the very thing that was meant to show what true love is--children." -Jeff I received an Advanced Reader copy from the publisher.

I need this book. If Jeff writes it, I'll read it. His poetic plea for healthy, lasting marriages is exactly what we need to hear. They are vulnerable, honest, and get right to the heart of it all. I got married last week and need to ground myself in these truths - which grows in me an EXCITEMENT and PASSION for marriage, just like Jeff and Alyssa have for God and each other. I LOVE this book.
