This did NOT help my marriage. I only read this just in case my wife wanted to leave but now she actually DOES. She said she had no intention of leaving me UNTIL I read THIS BOOK. Now there's a meeting booked at our lawyer's office for DIVORCE. SHE'S GOING TO TAKE MY CHILDREN. DO NOT READ THIS BOOK IF YOU WANT TO AVOID DIVORCE. THANKS A LOT TRACY.

Who would have thought that someone who was famous and rich could have had so many problems? I don’t really follow Baseball but I knew who Darryl Strawberry was. Beats me why but I thought that he would have a great marriage. Obviously I was wrong. Darryl and Tracy had their share of problems and really had to work at it in terms of forgiveness, understanding, surrender and self to let God in and heal their marriage. Not easy, but they did it. The nice thing is if they could do it so could you or anyone else who is having marriage issues. If we let Him God can heal anything and anyone. Great words that is not so easy when we are emotionally wounded. The Strawberrys take us on their journey and leave nothing out. We can identify with them as they lay out their problems and we can see some of our own problems. At the end of each chapter is a small segment called, “Something To Think About” that will give you food for thought and reflect on that chapter. Don’t give up. Your marriage can be restored and made whole. This book can be some of the help you need.

August 11, 2015I really liked this book. It is a book advising married couples to put God at the center of the marriage and to pray. I really enjoyed reading it and gave me new insight for my own marriage. It truly is encouraging and helped me to understand how I should be treating my husband, and respect myself as well.
