 Cafe Lily's Review:

This book was better than I expected. 

I respect the authors for not focusing on their "celebrity" status, but consistently pointing readers in the right direction and focusing on God.

Though it was hard to read about everything this couple went through, the ministry that was birthed out of their pain is amazing.

I was very impressed by the advice and suggestions in this book and highly recommend it for anyone who may be struggling in their marriage.  

They give examples of safeguards, what true forgiveness is, and how to be the "spouse in waiting" if your mate isn't ready to change.

This book is very easy to relate to and real.  It felt like having a normal conversation with Tracy and Darryl.  I wasn't completely familiar with who they were, but by the end of the book I felt like I knew them.

They share their heart, along with their mistakes and what they learned from almost losing their marriage.

Highly recommended - would make an awesome gift book for anyone you know who is struggling in marriage.
