Wanderings by Chaim Potok

Have you ever looked across the room and spotted a couple where immediately you know they were ecstatically in love? Did you envy them? Did you think, Sure wish I had a relationship like that? Did you just assume they matched up correctly and nothing else had to be done to get along? Well, that would be very rare This book is full of brand-new ideas to perk up a ho-hum struggling marriage. It offers examples of how to come to the point of truly accepting and enjoying each other again. These ideas come from two people having never been to even one marriage seminar. The ideas come from their own marriage and the illustrations illuminate from couples they have helped.
It is formulated for both husband and wife to read and learn together. Each chapter is filled with enlightening info that may spark surprise, bring a chuckle, or trigger a few tears. It begins with a wife's dilemma in her marriage. It moves from her frustration to good sound teaching and onto genuine hope. A biblical truth is pulled out, turned into a way of thinking called passing the test. It touches on how to control unkind habits and changing these habits with the positive goal of renewing the love you once had giving perspective on how married life really should be long-lived, successful, and happy.
