Reaching New Heights Through Kindness in Marriage


Book Description

This book is meant for everyone. The information and strategies that it provides were tested over the past three decades in my work as a marriage and family counselor. They have helped couples preparing for marriage as well as married couples whose relationships were at risk. Marriage can be as holy as a "devouring fire," full of fervor, passion, and enthusiasm. Each can connect with the other and become attached with a bond so strong, to feel so beloved by the other and feel such a love for the other, that their unity creates within them the most eternal peace on earth, an internal serenity that manifests externally in all their ways. This true love experience ignites a soul ascent, eager to capture the rapture of Oneness; unifying each other wherever they might be, near or far, always close in heart and soul, until together they are able to conquer worlds, to make an abode for divinity here on earth; to build a true home out of that beautiful love, a miniature sanctuary of their own. I pray as you read this book that you see the holiness in yourselves and in your spouse, that you experience much delight all the days of your life, forever together, reaching new heights.
