Having the Marriage You Always Wanted

Our Building Lasting Relationships Marriage seminar is fun, interactive, and life-changing. Brenda and I create a “Safe Place” for couples to share their concerns with only their spouse and not entire group, while protecting their dignity.

My second marriage book, Keeping Your Wife Your Best Friend (men love this book!), is an excellent tool for couples who desire to revolutionize their marriage.
