I decided to read this book not because it was something that I was personally dealing with but a topic that I wanted to explore and understand. The author was new to me but the publisher is one that I know and have been encouraged by their books.

This book applied to me in ways I didn't think. It really challenged me in my relationship with my son. It had great application beyond your marriage.

I highly recommend the book and as I read it via ebook would love a copy for my shelf.

If I had read this book during my own separation, I would have had a life raft of hope, real-world encouragement, and much-needed boundary building tools. This Christian book is an invaluable resource for any husband or wife, currently estranged from his or her spouse, who wants godly wisdom on how to proceed.

Linda W. Rooks does not give easy answers or false promises. She presents the entire gamut of emotional responses, based on her own experience of being separated for over three years. Best of all, she offers solid advice on how to handle all of those emotions with grace and self-control. If you have a hurting friend and don’t know what to say, simply give him or her this resource. By doing so, you may change your friend’s life forever.

Favorite quote:

“What you focus on expands.”

I received a preview copy of Fighting For Your Marriage While Separated from Netgalley.

Linda Rooks, “Fighting for Your Marriage While Separated,” is an incredibly wise and practical book that can offer hope to couples struck by the tsunami of pain, confusion, and disconnection. I highly recommend this book to couples looking for a biblical, down-to-earth, and life-giving guide for couples on their journey toward restoration!
