I wrote this book because God told me to. Nobody ever got married with the intentions of getting divorced. Many of us have no idea what to do after the wedding. What does that even look like? What about generational curses? What about demonic warfare? The Bible says that we wrestle NOT against flesh and blood. We hear aEURoefor better or worse,aEUR but what do we do when it gets worse? God has details on what that looks like. The Holy Ghost told me what to say. God never wastes any time, and pain always births purpose. God used all the experiences that I have encountered personally and with people that I have counseled to put together detailed learned lessons. You ever ask God for help, and you want God to be specific? There were things that I went through that I had no control over, and there were times when I ignored GodaEUR(tm)s warnings. Do you follow your heart or your head? This is why the title is the Desired MarriageaEUR"to help you have the marriage that God has designed for you, the relationship that you desire that can lead to the marriage, how during the relationship both of you can work on things that can better prepare you for later. IaEUR(tm)ve seen small things that could have been fixed, but some didnaEUR(tm)t know how this could end the relationship or marriage. They just didnaEUR(tm)t know how to go about things. This book will push you to your potential and challenge you to be the best you that you can be. The person you are married to deserves a better version of you. This book will help you deal with friction between the person that you have a child/children with. The Bible tells us to walk by faith and not by sight. God had you in mind when He created this book.

This introductory textbook is for students who are interested in learning about and establishing healthy marriage, family, and intimate relationships. With divorce rates high and relationships fragile, books and courses are needed that help students address important issues regarding relationships. The readers of this text examine many important and relevant issues through the lens of theory and research and do so using a written format that is readable, understandable, and easy to apply to oneís life. It was written so that each chapter has information that readers will find helpful as they attempt to establish and maintain meaningful, healthy relationships. There are questions throughout each chapter that help readers focus not only on the material but also on how the material relates to their present and past relationship and family situations. The text provides material on the research of John Gottman, the object relations theory of Harville Hendrix, the solution- focused approach of Michele Weiner-Davis, and the PREP approach to conflict management of Markman, Stanley, and Blumberg. These and other topics discussed are very relevant to studentsí concerns and are addressed in greater depth than found in most other texts. The emphasis is not just on couple relationships but also on family relationships. Therefore, in this book there is extensive coverage of family systems theory and the influence of family rules and family structure on the development of families. There is also material on how change produces transitions in family life that must be assimilated into the family structureófor example, when a couple has their first child. Thus, both couple and family issues are addressed throughout the book. For instructors who want to focus their courses on marriage, family, and intimate relationships, this book would be an ideal choice.

The third edition of Handbook of Marriage and the Family describes, analyzes, synthesizes, and critiques the current research and theory about family relationships, family structural variations, and the role of families in society. This updated Handbook provides the most comprehensive state-of-the art assessment of the existing knowledge of family life, with particular attention to variations due to gender, socioeconomic, race, ethnic, cultural, and life-style diversity. The Handbook also aims to provide the best synthesis of our existing scholarship on families that will be a primary source for scholars and professionals but also serve as the primary graduate text for graduate courses on family relationships and the roles of families in society. In addition, the involvement of chapter authors from a variety of fields including family psychology, family sociology, child development, family studies, public health, and family therapy, gives the Handbook a multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary framework.

Covers major topics relevant to human relationships from a cross-cultural perspective. Examines how world cultures differ in their sexual, familial, and social habits.
