Great insights if you want a biblical view of what to do when your spouse isn’t willing to work on things. How to work on things even if you are the only one willing to. Refocuses your efforts on God who can save your family.

This is my little go to book. It is small but compact with very important information. I use this book with a group of wives for our early morning sessions. I would recommend it to any wife if you're looking for answers to save your marriage.

Although the book referenced the topic of infidelity for nearly the entire book, the author did give you hope and some very good ideas that are working to save my 25 year marriage. In my case, there was no infidelity on either of our parts. Just a whole slew of damaged feelings and carelessness on my part. Well, the amortized cost is now being paid for by me. Take this book and read it. it is a very fast read. He gives you ideas that are proving very very helpful. Yes, you will read much about infidelity and, yes this may not be your challenge. Just like it was not mine, but, the ideas work for all relationships that have melted down. this booklet will give you hope and help the anxieties and will help you cope with the pain

1.0 out of 5 stars This Book Might Only Cost 3.99, But Can you Afford It?
Reviewed in the United States on February 15, 2017

Can you Afford this Book? This little booklet might only be $3.99, but can you afford it? I purchased this book a year ago because my marriage was in serious trouble due to my husbands infidelity. I was looking for a book with steps to save my marriage with some biblical teaching as well so I did some research and read a lot of reviews on amazon and decided that this book would work for my needs. Once I received the book I read it cover to cover 3 times in the first day and 2 times the next day desperate for some guidance.
Here are some bullet point from the book:
If your marriage is in trouble it's because both of you have done things wrong
No marriage is too far gone to be saved
Even if your partner is cheating you should NOT kick them out of the house, as you want to keep them close and not push them into the arms of the one they are cheating with
You should spend every waking moment of your life making sure you are perfect and a clear contrast to the person your spouse is choosing over you at that moment
You should leave notes and gifts for your spouse and go out of your way to make your spouse feel loved
NEVER talk about the "third" member of your marriage because you don't want to bring your spouses mind back to them when it's "your time"
Avoid ALL fights at ALL cost

The list could go on and on, but I think you can see the pattern. As I write this a year later after MONTHS and MONTHS of therapy and THOUSANDS of dollars paid to get REAL help, I ask you this. Can you afford to get this book. I only wish I could go back in time and NOT buy this book. If your spouse is cheating on you it is not your fault.
Do yourself a favor if you find yourself married to a cheater who is unwilling to work on your marriage would give up their "extra activities" and let this book pass by, hire a lawyer and a professional therapist and buckle in for a long road of recovery.

For the bewildered husband who is struggling to make things right this is a good book to jump start what you can do to work on improving you when your spouse just is not ready yet, and may be moving towards devorce. Don't give up! This little book will help you on your journey of making you the spouse you always wanted to be but didn't know how.

This book is small but every page is a compulsive read. It is written for anyone who needs help to hang on to their marriage. God invented marriage and he knows exactly what is required to help you get back to where you and your spouse and your family need to be. If you are looking at this book for yourself or someone else, I urge you to buy it. It is written by someone who walked out every suggestion made and every piece of guidance mentioned throughout.
It is not a theoretical guide, but a genuine, honest account of what it takes to have a fulfilling marriage. If you have lost hope, then this book will speak to you.
