Marriage Is Hard, Truths I Wish I Had Understood Before I Got Married

The reality is that all marriages are hard because they all have unavoidable and unanticipated challenges and trials. Marriage is hard because it is the union of two sinners engaged in the eternal battle between self-centeredness and servanthood, between living for self or dying to self. But God is faithful, and He has a gracious plan of heart-transformation for any wife who will commit her way to Him. Group study questions for each of ten chapters.

‘In Susan's book she states, "The great challenge in marriage is that we must learn to love the one who regularly reminds us of and exposes our own selfishness." "We realize that we are no different than they are; we're sinners, too, and our sins are equally as offensive, requiring from God the same payment-the death of our Savior." "to recognize that our responsibility is to give attention to our response." Susan does a great job of opening your eyes to the challenges of marriage and equipping you for the journey. She uses personal examples and is very practical. She gets a hold of your heart and points you to God. I plan on using this book to minister to other women. There are great soul searching questions in the back. I wish I had this 25 years ago!’ Gene Melton
