It’s no secret that relationships, marriage, and families are in crisis. Traditional roles and societal views are constantly changing in these entities. It seems we can handle the calm waters and sunny days, but what happens when we’re faced with the tumultuous waters and dark days? Many of us aren’t equipped with the tools needed to navigate the weary waves of reality within a family unit. The lack of preparation and sound wisdom is causing marriages to fail and families to be torn apart. Stacey Prater-White focuses on her scars and stars and teaches us how to discover what the underlying issues are in several distinct areas. She transparently shares her lessons learned in a simple to follow, easy to apply format, based on questions and concerns she has received from those seeking marital and relational advice.
A few of those highlighted in the book are:

-How do I know if this relationship is worth my investment of time? -What are some things I can do to prepare for marriage? -Is pre-marital counseling necessary? -My husband/wife won’t communicate clearly! -What happened to the spark and romance? -How can we better manage our finances? -His/her family won’t leave us alone? -I didn’t know marriage was going to be this difficult! -Will parenting get harder or easier over time?

Whether you’re single, engaged, married, divorced, widow(ed), young or seasoned; this book will help you navigate your relationships, marriage, family, and give you tools to be effective.
