The Five Languages of Apology

author Gary Chapman

Psychologist-Anthropologist

People express and receive love in different ways. Dr. Chapman has identified the following as the five

languages of love:

Words of Affirmation Gifts

Quality Time Acts of Service

Physical Touch

If you express love in a way your spouse doesn’t understand, he or

she won’t realize you’ve expressed your love at all. The problem is that

you’re speaking two different languages.

You can learn to speak and understand the unique languages

of love and effectively express your love, as well as, feel truly loved in

return.

Excerpts from the Book

“At the heart of mankind’s existence is the desire to be intimate and to be loved by an-other. Marriage is designed to meet that need for intimacy and love.”

“The object of love is not getting something you want but doing something for the well-being of the one you love. It is a fact, how-ever, that when we receive affirming words, we are far more likely to be motivated to reciprocate.”

Instructor Terri Moser, MA Counseling, and Certified Family Life

Educator is the Director of Family Ministries at St. Catherine of Siena Parish in Austin, Texas.
