Dr. Chapman's book describes the four seasons of marriage and how to tell which one your relationship is in. There are strategies for a marriage to be healthier, as well as tips for keeping a healthy marriage (once the reader has one). Very interesting reading and I am glad that I read this book.

Great book for any season
I'm not a person to read marriage books, and besides, I'm newly happily married. However, I decided to read it anyway. I enjoyed Chapman's 5 love languages book and figured there would be helpful information I could glean from him in this book as well.
In his easy, conversational tone, Chapman walks you through what different seasons of marriage can look like. He then gives you practical advice on how to bring your marriage seeing a difficult time into a time of new life - these suggestions are certainly not limited to folks having a hard time though! Many were good reminders to me to not let complacency set in, but to stay actively engaged and communicate with my husband so that we don't get between a rock and hard place.
I hope to add this book to my collection one day.
