If you’ve clicked on this page, it’s because you’re curious about Save Your Christian Marriage. Before you go any further, I’d like to tell you that yes, I do own this book and have read it – and yes, (Thank God!) it has helped me improve my marriage.

I found it early one morning, after this strange and dreadful feeling took over me – I was worried that my husband and I were growing apart again and after enduring a three year separation several years ago, I didn’t think our marriage would survive another one. I had been feeling a bit suspicious that maybe something was going on and had begun that horrible process of poking through my husband’s things (I don’t recommend this at all!) – each time my heart pounded so hard I thought it would explode. I was afraid that I’d find some evidence that indicated that he wanted to leave. The anxiety was causing me physical symptoms and I felt like I couldn’t go on like this. I felt that I’d rather end our marriage than continue growing ever farther apart.

I was hurting inside when I typed these words into Google: “what does God say about marriage?” and a link to “Save Your Christian Marriage” popped up. I clicked it and read the description and in my desperation, I purchased this  ebook and it’s accompanying bonus parts – My marriage couldn’t wait – I had to read it then, or I was going to lose my mind – that’s where I was at that morning.

After downloading my ebook, I began immediately reading the “Quick Start Guide” and the “Top 5 things Not to Do” sections. Had I not read those two parts, I know for a fact that I was going home that evening and I was going to do those very things. I had already tried to call my father – I was going to invite him for lunch so we could discuss some things, but he didn’t answer the phone.  Thankfully, by the time he called me back, I had read this book  and it had stopped me in my tracks before I was able to do another damaging thing.

Even more encouraging, it almost immediately calmed my anxiety – my heart stopped beating like it was going to burst; my hands stopped shaking and I was finally able to concentrate on a solution.

I day or so later, I had a talk with my husband, following the guidelines this book gives, and we were able to have one of the most honest conversations we’d had in a long while. Although that day we weren’t able to end the conversation in the manner that I would’ve liked, because I was set on following what the book said, I was able to let it go peacefully. The next day, my husband apologized for the way things had been going and I also apologized for the part I played in it. He told me that what I had said to him had really hit home and although it wasn’t exactly what he wanted to hear, my honesty and genuine concern made him really think about our life together.

I thank God for this book and that conversation we had that night. Ever since then,  we’ve been able to enjoy each other’s company and live in loving kindness again. I’m not trying to sell this book, I’m just trying to tell you how thankful I am that I found it just in time. It proves to me that God is on time and that He wants us to remain married – married and happy. That is His will for us, if only we’d follow his tenets – with God’s help, this book really did save my marriage.
