I also believe that at the heart of a healthy family is the couple. Investing in your marriage is invaluable to your children as well as your spouse and will guarantee you more return on investment than any car or home you'll ever buy. Being proactive in our relationships is the baseline of wellness. Sadly, divorce is still spreading like wildfire.
Whether we admit it or not, it's happening all around our neighborhoods, faith-based and non-faith-based alike. In my personal and professional life, I come across many couples resorting to divorce without seeing that their marriage has a fighting chance and without ever realizing that their marriage is undoubtedly worth fighting for.
I have had one too many couples over the last few years tell me that when seeking help for their relationship from a counselor (or two, or three), instead of getting the help they needed, they were told to just get a divorce.Frankly, that leaves me speechless at best and outraged at worst. If you went to the mechanic because your headlights were out, and they told you that you might as well have it towed to the closest junkyard, you, too, would be irate, I hope.

You know you don't want a divorce yet imagining more of this makes you want to run for the hills.
Despite the fact that nobody else is talking about it, the fact is - you are NOT the only ones going through a rough patch and looking for help.
What that means for you is this: If you have six couples at your monthly couples' dinner club, statistically speaking, three of those couples are going through some tough times right now (or have in the past).
And if you are like most couples out there, you, too, walked away the day of your wedding with no handy-dandy manual explaining in detail what to do when this kind of stuff happens.
