At first I thought this book was going to be tedious. I mean, really, how many books is Gary Chapman going to write with '5 Languages' in the title? So, I didn't expect this book to tell me much. As I read it, though, I realized it was rather an important read. Effective apologies aren't something overly well taught or conveyed. I didn't find the different languages of apology to be all that earth-shattering as they seemed a bit straight forward to me. However, since the language needed depends...more

I was raised a Christian and professed my own choice of the Christian faith at 13 but after reading a slew of Christian help books I can easily understand why people are fleeing the Christian faith in droves. This book made me question my own faith after decades (decades!!) of dedication.

'The Five Languages of Apology' is an excellent book that helped me understand repentance and forgiveness better by helping me recognize when others were apologizing to me, and to express my apologies better. Some genuine apologies seemed so fake to me, and sometimes other people just didn't seem to get how sorry I was; much of this was caused because we were speaking different 'languages'.

For me, this was the perfect book at the perfect time. I liked that the author broke an apology down into different languages. A simple 'I'm sorry' is not always believable, even when it is sincere. Some need more than that in order to fully process it and move on. It amazed me how adding a few different words to an apology can be the difference between forgiveness and grudges or between healing and hurting.

I've read The Five Love Languages: How to Express Heartfelt Commitment to Your Mate and The Five Love Languages for Singles and appreciate knowing the love languages and knowing what mine are, what my spouse's are, and those of family and close friends. My husband and I were discussing the love languages again the other day and went to Chapman's website, where we noticed a quiz for 'apology languages'. So we both took it and then I read this book.

I really enjoyed the first chapter of this book and agree with the authors that there are various languages of apology. I have noticed in my own marriage that at times my husband and I struggle with communicating our apology to one another. But within the next few chapters I soon disagreed with the author about the issue of when to forgive. I believe that we need to be cultivating a heart of forgiveness and taking our hurt to God so that when someone does apologies we are ready to extend our for...more

If you have difficulty resolving conflicts with individuals you care about, this book provides the tools to get you started down the path. Written in the same style/tone as the Five Love Languages by Chapman, this book takes the time to outline, explain, discuss, and give examples of different ways people apologize.

I would give this book a 4.5/5. I really like the concept of the book and I am hoping to use the apology languages in my life. The only thing I disliked about the book was the fact that it doesn't give you any advice if you are one of the people who never grew up with apologies. I could tell I was very similar to a person they described as having a fear of failure being the reason I might be tempted to refuse to apologize. My entire adult life I've fought that and done my best to apologize when...more
I was hopeful this would be more helpful in apology and forgiveness.
The concept in this book is excellent - basically that there are 5 elements to apologies and we all desire a different combination of some or all of them to feel as though the wrong-doer has actually apologized. It really made me think back to arguments that I've had that involve some sort of meta-argument about whether or not an apology has occurred. After reading this book, I can confidently say that I believe that the person RECEIVING the apology is the one to decide whether the giver has apo...more
A powerful follow-up to The Five Love Languages, I think this one was even more useful in improving and maintaining health of my marriage. Where The Five Love Languages taught me to understand my spouse, The Five Languages of Apology taught me more about myself. At times, it was hard to face the realization that I have been exceedingly poor at speaking apologies in such a way that others accept my apology as sincere and heartfelt. I always belived that saying you're sorry and meaning it should b...more

Another winner from Chapman and Thomas! The five languages of apology was nicely laid out, easy to read, excellent examples and even touched on the 'Five languaes of love' (another book).
The five languages of apology are:
1. Expressing Regret
Example 'I am sorry.'
2. Accepting Responsibility
Example 'I was wrong.'
3. Making Restitution
'What can I do to make it right?
4. Genuinely Repenting
'I'll try not to do that again.'
5. Requesting Forgiveness
'Will you please forgive me?'

Unfortunately not nearly as good as 'The Five Love Languages'. I do think the authors have a point, that there are different languages of apology, but I found it a lot harder to relate to the differences between the languages, and I still have absolutely no clue what my primary language of apology is!

Have you ever had a disagreement with spouse, friend, or coworker and the apology given didn’t mend your hurt feelings? Or maybe you tried to apologize only to have your apology rejected. Possibly your apology didn’t match the style of the receiver.

This would have been better if they had deleted 2/3rd of it. The concept of apology languages is interesting and valuable. The additional religious content was heavy handed and preachy, it did not add to my understanding of the apology languages.
If you want to avoid most of the religious rhetoric but still get an understanding of the apology languages, just read the first half of the book.

Gary Chapman, who wrote The Five Love Languages, teamed up with a psychologist studying apologies to write this book about the five languages of apology.
First, it seems like kind of a convenient stretch that there are exactly five apology languages. It's a little too on-brand for me.

Since I read The Five Love Languages just last week, it was still fresh in my mind, and while reading this book, I noticed several similarities. Granted they are by the same author, but I would have liked something a bit more original. This is me being a little sarcastic, but how does it work out that there are five of everything? (Please see other titles by Chapman if you do not know what I am referring to.) I also noticed in The Five Languages of Apology that Chapman (and Thomas) were a bit re...more
This book was good for helping me realize that someone may sincerely apologize but it may not be perceived as sincere by the person being apologized to. I do have an issue with one of the apology languages and also his definition of forgiveness that I don't quite agree with. He says that we cannot forgive unless the other person apologizes and asks for forgiveness. I don't agree. Possibly it's just a difference in wording but he says since God cannot forgive until we have confessed to Him and as...more
Definitely a good read and one that will reshape how you give and receive apologies. It focuses on the fact that what a good apology is to one person is not what a good apology may be to another. This difference may lead to one person offering what they feel is a sincere apology only to have it not received as a sincere apology. The critical component being that for an apology to be received as sincere the giver must use the receiver's apology language. These languages are different than the 5 l...more

I'd recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn to relate to other people better. There is a bit of Christian oriented instrucution in it, but not enough to eclipse its larger purpose for those who are non-believers. If the goal is improved relationships and interpersonal communication, this book is for you!

This book was a quick read. It was a bit redundant in places but it also had a few good insights. If you are person who feels constantly slighted, you might want to read this book and get an idea of why you feel this way. This book does have strong Christian comments in case that would bother you.
Great book. Gave me a lot of insight on how to apologize so that the other person knows you are remorseful and are changing.
Also now reading the 5 love languages again and realizing how I've been speaking the wrong language for s a long time.

Really enjoyed this book. Learned so much about myself and why there is still tension between my husband and I even after an apology.. I have even taught these five principles to my kids. Highly recommend this book!
Powerful and solid for engaging in renewed relationships.

“Genuine forgiveness and reconciliation are two-person transactions that are enabled by apologies. Some, particularly within the Christian worldview, have taught forgiveness without an apology. They often quote the words of Jesus, “If you do not forgive men their trespasses neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.” Thus, they say to the wife whose husband has been unfaithful and continues in his adulterous affair, “You must forgive him, or God will not forgive you.” Such an interpretation of Jesus’ teachings fails to reckon with the rest of the scriptural teachings on forgiveness. The Christian is instructed to forgive others in the same manner that God forgives us. How does God forgive us? The Scriptures say that if we confess our sins, God will forgive our sins. Nothing in the Old or New Testaments indicates that God forgives the sins of people who do not confess and repent of their sins.
