The Marriage Mender: A Couple's Guide for Staying Together

Remember how you felt on your wedding day? You were happy and in love and planned to stay that way for the rest of your life. But when was the last time you felt like that? "Did I make a mistake and marry the wrong person?" you wonder.

Marriage is more than just finding the "right" person-it's about working with your spouse through the natural stages of your marriage and growing into a loving, life-long relationship. But when things are rough and don't seem to be getting any better, wouldn't it be easier to call it quits and start from scratch?

If you're looking for a fresh start, The Marriage Mender will give you the solution-based tools you need to begin rebuilding your marriage. With illustrations and exercises, it will teach you how to look to the future of your relationship instead of focusing on the past with its problems. You'll build emotional safety and then learn to communicate more effectively with your spouse, resolve conflict creatively, fight fairly, and much more.

Your marriage is worth saving and The Marriage Mender will show you how.
