When you think of marriage, do you think of serious illness, multiple surgeries, job loss, financial ruin, or a lack of physical intimacy? Do you, or did you, feel that marriage would fill empty places in your life and “heal” existing wounds? Marriage is hard work, especially when the bride and groom go into it with unfounded expectations. These seven chapters are an enlightening, sometimes painful, other times humorous, account of the author’s journey through marriage and spiritual healing. All engaged couples, newlyweds, and other couples struggling with expectations should read this book of hope.
