Every Marriage Needs More A-W-E

Looking for a way to work through a difficult time in your marriage, surviving the tough times and drawing closer? Blessed with a "good" union but hoping to find something better and deeper? Jim Burns points the way. Author and popular radio host Dr. Jim Burns shares from his own life and experience while also teaching us about how to develop a stronger bond and a more meaningful relationship as husband and wife. Some of this advice transcends marriage and would be valuable for singles also: grow up, quit blaming your past or other people, and begin taking responsibility for your own life, choices, and attitudes. The core of the book points to A-W-E: affection, warmth, and encouragement. Marriages filled with these three qualities tend to be thriving and successful --- especially when these affirmations are flowing in both directions, to and from each partner. Instead of just telling you that marriage can be better, Dr. Burns shows you exactly how to begin moving forward --- toward a stronger union.
