About this listen
In Love That Lasts, New York Times best-selling author 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 listeners an inspiring, realistic vision of love, dating, marriage, and sex.
Young people today enter adulthood with expectations of blissful dating followed by romantic, fulfilling marriages 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 pasts, 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 the lies, such as the belief that every person has only one soul mate, that marriage will complete you, and that pornography and hookups are harmless.

A story that is real, honest and vulnerable but constantly pointing towards the author of True Love.

Healthy medicine
Laughed, cried and learned a lot. Love that the authors read their own book... Enjoyed listening to the entire book in one sitting, flying from Vancouver to Toronto. Thank you for writing this book, all the work you guys did to make it a reality and touching so many hearts.

Definitely worth hearing again
Thanks to Jeff and Alyssa for sharing their story, the real story raw and unedited. We're all human and make mistakes as we grow in our relationship with the heavenly father as well as our spouses.

Warning - religious material
Had fo stop after first few chapters. Too much reference to god and religion. Was looking for good stories and examples for non religious. If you are not big on empowering thru god then this book may not be right for you

Entertaining but I’m not sure what I got out of it
I really like these two and I loved hearing their story, but thinking back on it I’m not sure what I actually gained by hearing this book. Their stories are great and I think would have more meaning to someone who is dating or engaged, so maybe it’s just that I’m not at that point in my life?
