Saved my marriage. We never even finished the book (plan to go back though and start again from the beginning). I never imagined that it would actually help anything, we were done... But we both have it an honest try with an open mind. Content is amazing, so truthful and unbiased. This is NOT the garbage you are handed in counseling. Would have been wonderful to have earlier in marriage, but better late than never. Worth every penny, GIVE IT A TRY, YOU HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE FROM IT!!

It has amazing information!! But it doesn't really include Jesus very much...why not include the one who created marriage and how he helps and what his plans are
