Marriage Be Hard: 12 Conversations to Keep You Laughing, Loving, and Learning with Your Partner - Kevin Fredericks

\nDiscover the real keys to upholding your vows while staying sane in this hilariously candid guide to relationships \nGrowing up in the church, Kevin and Melissa Fredericks were taught endless rules and expectations around dating, sex, and marriage, but not a lot about what actually makes a relationship work. There were conversations that they didn't know they needed to have, deep-rooted fears that affected how they communicated, and seasons of change that put their marriage to the test. \n \nNow, in their first book, they go beyond the rules preached on Sunday mornings and the advice given at men's and women's groups, busting popular myths to provide a hilarious and fresh look at what it takes to build and maintain a lasting relationship. Drawing on nearly two decades of marriage and interviews with experts, they argue that: \n \n \n \n - Compatibility is overrated. \n - Communication is about way more than simply talking. \n - Seeing divorce as an option can actually help your marriage. \n - There's such a thing as healthy jealousy. \n \nWritten for those tired of unrealistic relationship books--and for anyone wondering if they're the only ones breaking all the rules--Marriage Be Hard is a breath of fresh air and a must-read guide for couples everywhere.\n
