Publisher's summary

The transition from "married" to "married with children" can be tough. Before they know it, a once youthful and energetic married couple finds themselves in a minivan loaded with noisy kids and littered with Cheerios, crusty Sippy cups, banana peels, and missing library books. As much as you love your children and work hard to nurture and train them for the future, the challenges that come with parenthood can make the "for better or for worse" promise a hard one to honor.

For Better or for Kids will enable couples to:

  • Build a God-centered marriage instead of a child-centered or me-centered marriage
  • Avoid the dangers of spouse-neglect and self-neglect
  • Effectively communicate in the chaos
  • Explore ways to parent together as one team
  • Find balance in the busyness

For Better or for Kids is about remembering that even when you feel worn out, over-extended, and neglected, you promised to be a team. Marriage with kids may not always be what we expected, but it is good. We need to make a vow to love our spouse with kids in the house.

So true

So true, for husband and wife that are struggling to grasp the meaning behind being married and having a family or just want to get better at their relationship and have a relationship with God.

Just what we needed.

This book was great, hearing it the first time hit so many areas in my life I look forward to working on and hearing it a second time with my husband made us laugh and plan and relate in so many levels. We found encouragement and as our life with kids has just started, we look forward to what’s ahead with great advice.
