Fight for marriage
Marriage isn’t for getting everything you want…it’s for becoming the man God intended, by loving and pursuing your wife faithfully.
About Marriage is Worth the Fight
Marriage Is Worth the Fight is for men who would give their life to save their wife but struggle to die to themselves each day in sacrificial love. Many husbands say they would take a bullet for their spouse. They would literally give up every future day on this earth for her. That is the ultimate act of selflessness. And yet, when it comes to daily life—serving, listening, forgiving—so many of us find ourselves pulling back, keeping score, or wanting to quit when things get hard. Why?Because the real battle in marriage is not with your wife. It is within you.
I wrote this book for men like me. Men who love their wives but sometimes feel stuck, discouraged, or unsure of how to move forward. There was a time when my own marriage felt like it was slipping away. I thought the problem was her… until God helped me see the deeper work needed to happen in me. That realization began a journey of personal transformation I did not expect but one I am deeply thankful for. It changed me. And it changed our marriage.
This book is an invitation: to step up, to lead with love, and to pursue real strength, the kind that comes from humility and the power of the Holy Spirit. Inside, I share what helped me reconnect with my purpose as a husband and grow into the man God was calling me to be. You will find:
Practical and biblical insights on leading and loving like Christ
Guidance for rebuilding trust when things feel uncertain
A look at true greatness in God’s eyes and why it starts at home
Encouragement to grow personally, not just hope your marriage will change
There will never be a quick fix for your marriage unless it involves submitting yourself to the transformational power of the Holy Spirit. Marriage Is Worth the Fight is not about having it all together or getting things fixed tomorrow. It is about consistently showing up, trusting God, and becoming the man God designed you to be.
