Where has half of 2008 gone? Each year seems to go faster than the last, and that very fact is a potential problem for most of us. The frantic pace we keep in order to stay in the rat race easily keeps us from the things that are absolutely essential – nurturing our marriages and families.

So here are some quick-read articles to help get things back into perspective.

Incompatibility – is it really a nasty? No, says Rene, not really, when we learn to appreciate its upside!  No matter what our combination, our marriages are worth protecting. How? We share some insights from our MarriageWorks seminar.

Graham Roberts corresponds with many couples from different cultures, and shares some of that – what happens when one becomes a Christian and the dynamics of the relationship change?  Phil Callaway encourages us to total faithfulness through the long haul of a long marriage. and Hugh O’Neill sees his ageing wife through the eyes of love.

Phil McGilvray shares his financial wizardry again, with his reminders about generosity even in economically challenging days. Followed by another bit of
“internet wisdom”.

Again – Happy Reading!
