About this listen

Boasting more than one million copies of his works sold, conservative radio personality Dr. James C. Dobson squarely addresses the problem of troubled marriages. He targets infidelity, alcoholism, spousal abuse, and emotional distance as the primary causes of divorce. Dobson also chooses to denounce homosexuality as an abomination. With his groundbreaking theory of "loving toughness", he offers a path toward solving marital problems, building family values, and rekindling lost romance.

Ideas v Action

The ideas and strategies presented, the knowledge given is amazing. It’s helped me engage with my soon-to-be-ex in different and positive ways.

Applying this into action is much more difficult in such a highly emotional situation. I’ll give it another listen and keep working!

Difficult Marraige? Mandatory Reading

This is required reading if you’re in a difficult marriage. Whether you’re struggling with an alcoholic, an abusive wife or husband, or infidelity, this book will speak to you. And any marriage counselor, who hasn’t read it, isn’t worth talking to.

Spoke to My Soul

Didn't want it end. Dr. Dobson was speaking to my SOUL in the book. It is one to revisit throughout my life in times of heartbreak, self doubt, anger, love, and joy.

divine wisdom..

some of the parts hit deep and several times it was too painful to continue,so, I had to take a few days 'off' to pray and meditate but by the end, i made a decision to follow God's will and i forgave myself, my exe and my children. peace and bliss come after forgiveness...
