About this audiobook

"I said I was sorry!"

Even in the best of relationships, all of us make mistakes. We do and say things we later regret and hurt the people we love most. So we need to make things right. But simply saying you’re sorry is usually not enough.

In this audio book, #1 New York Times best-selling author Gary Chapman and Jennifer Thomas unveil new ways to effectively approach and mend fractured relationships. Even better, you’ll discover how meaningful apologies provide the power to make your friendships, family, and marriage stronger than ever before.

When Sorry Isn’t Enough will help you . . .

• Cool down heated arguments
• Offer apologies that are fully accepted
• Rekindle love that has been dimmed by pain
• Restore and strengthen valuable relationships
• Trade in tired excuses for honesty, trust, and joy

This book was previously published as The Five Languages of Apology. Content has been significantly revised and updated.

some good advice, but WARNING this book is very religious. chapter after chapter of bible stories and Scripture, and constantly diverting topic to God and Jesus of the christian religion using it as the reason for learning the books topic.

I have thoroughly enjoyed this book & I've learned so very much about the 5 Love Languages. Before my counselor suggested that I read this, I didn't have any idea that the apologies I made weren't enough. I'll read this book again [at least once more, maybe a 3rd time]. I'll take notes so that I'll have support for when I apologize so that I can fix relationships & forgive myself mainly & so others can really know that I'm sincere. I want those I care about to heal from the wrongs I've committed against them. I don't love myself, I don't even like myself but at least now there's hope for me & the relationships with those I love.
