Christian Marriage Advice
Getting Christian
marriage
advice from people doesn't mean things will automatically be wonderful. In fact, building a great relationship doesn't happen in a day, or a week, or a month. It is a steady, progressive, one-issue-at-a-time proposition. And even with the best intentions, the process is still difficult at best.
Rev Lee Baucom, a Christian marriage counselor, works with couples every single day. He's seen what works. He's been involved in many, many situations where he's helped couples see the issues more clearly so they could take the necessary steps to make things better.
There are no magic answers. But there is hope. You truly can turn things around if you're willing to ask God for help, and then make the decision to fight for your spouse, your family, and your relationship despite how things look right now. Do you think you can do that?
We know you want and need Christian marriage help because we are literally being inundated with prayer requests for troubled marriages. Below are some questions and answers by Rev Lee. Chances are, you'll find some answers amidst all the responses.
And for more answers check out Rev Lee's book:"Save Your Christian Marriage"
Karen's Comments
Rev Lee has a way of transforming difficult marital issues into understandable concepts that make them easier to face. I think his experience working with couples every day makes his advice very relevant.
Rev Lee's book answers so many of the questions that we see every day on our site.
I am very happy to announce that Rev Lee is offering a $10 discount for Christian Books for Women site visitors. He's including a copy of his book AND one on one email counseling in the package.
