Denise Jackson

I found this book really uplifting. I thought that their story was done honestly and tastefully while being upfront about feelings, emotions, events and realities of everyday life. Marriages everywhere are going through similar situations and while those situations are just as tough, the fact that Alan was a superstar made it even more difficult I'm sure.

But I found Denise's advice very sound. As one who has been through a difficult marriage, I can honestly say that it is 'All About Him' and the real groundwork is forgiveness. Christ said to love one another be tender hearted forgiving one another as Christ has forgiven you. How could you not be forgiving and expect to be forgiven yourself. In our humaness I don't think it possible, but as Denise said through God all things are possible. Forgiveness and love are choices we make not based on feelings or performance but something we set out to do. Many marriages would be saved if they would choose to forgive instead of choose anger and bitterness. As Denise pointed out, that only hurts the offended not the offender. In her dedication she says to Alan, 'To recover something of great value after it has been lost makes me treasure it even more'. Speaking from one who has been there, that sums up how it is if you make it through the firey times.

I highly recommended this book to everyone. It it a book written straight from the heart.… (plus d'informations)

I just finished reading "It's All About Him" by Denise Jackson (Alan Jackson's wife). Denise and Alan had a fairy tale romance and marriage until it all fell apart. Alan moved out and Denise had to start life all over w/o him. This book has a very happy ending with D&A getting back together and with a much deeper, more commited than ever relationship. Also this is a story of spirtual growth and renewal. The book gave me a lot of insights into Alan's songs and his heartbeat for family, God and country. I loved the book. I would give it 4 stars.… (plus d'informations)
