You CAN Have Straight A’s in YOUR Marriage
He stood at my kitchen counter drinking a cup of coffee. Our overnight guest casually spoke about summer plans he made with his wife. It sounded nice – a few picnics, a couple of quick weekend trips, kids sports events to take in, maybe a holiday that they had talked about for a long time. Then he paused and... >Read More

Your Marriage is Worth Fighting For?
67% of first time marriages go the distance. I was reading a report on divorce statistics from StatsCan and this fact jumped off the page. It seemed to contradict a much repeated statistic that 50% of marriages end in divorce. So which one is true? Well, they both are actually.
