{"product_id":"2940015611458","title":"Marital Death - Marital Life","description":"Every couple I’ve ever married typically has expectations of long-term success. I know of no one who utters under his or her breath, “I can’t wait for this marriage to die,” as he or she walks deliberately down the aisle. That would be absurd!  They might think that there may be a bit of an initial adjustment, but they genuinely believe that it will be a good life together. Prayerfully, they hope for a very happy life indeed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book addresses the well-intentioned innocence and the poorly-informed ignorance that we all face, as we enter married life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe preconceived ideas, personal expectations, erroneous assumptions, misinformed understandings, and faulty perceptions of reality all serve to confuse, disappoint, and would even destroy the fabric of emotional trust and happiness that our soul desperately craves.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs you enter this world of Marital Death and Marital Life, many of you will wonder if I live in your house.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo, but I live in my house, and experience many of the same things, because we are all male or female and are generally poorly prepared for marriage.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book, if you choose to follow it, will help clarify, teach, and correct that which is broken, and provide renewed trust, continual hope, and a refreshed deeper love.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBe mindful that we are all “failers,” but only a “failure” when we quit. It is almost always, too soon to quit.","brand":"Xulon Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47153045733616,"sku":"2940015611458","price":7.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940015611458_p0.jpg?v=1763622443","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940015611458","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
