Publisher's Synopsis
30 day devotional It's no secret that marriage is under attack but, are you your own worst enemy? Most of us are not equipped with the skills we need to navigate the road to a happy marriage. We are all looking for answers, a way to talk about things, a way to increase intimacy and hope, a way to be happy in our circumstances. Ron and Cindy Ritter have been mentoring couples on how to have a happy marriage God's way for many years. They utilize their own painful "lessons learned" through divorce, their spiritual gifts of pastor/teacher and countless hours of studying the Bible and Christian resources on marriage and divorce. This 30 day devotional is the accumulation of God's redeeming work in their lives. May God richly bless you as you follow His word for your marriage. Table of Contents - Don't Buy the Lie # 1.
