10 Best Books To Help Restore Your Marriage

WHERE CAN YOU FIND help to restore your marriage? This is a question I’ve been asked many times. The right kind of counselor can certainly help. However, you need to make sure it indeed is the right kind of counselor as I describe in my book, Fighting for Your Marriage while Separated. There are great programs that can help too if there’s one in your community or if you’re able to travel. But what if you want help right now? You don’t want to wait. You want to restore your marriage, and you want to start the process now!
There are a number of excellent books that can help in this process. Even if you’re not a reader, many of them have audio versions too. The books in the following list are ones I have personally read. Each approaches restoration from a different angle, but each one offers excellent insights and tools that can help restore your marriage.
For more specific situations, there are other good books I recommend too. But if your marriage is in crisis these are ones that can help you now. For further suggestions check out my links page on brokenheartonhold.com
