Marriage is a bond that requires hard work from two people in order to find happiness - find all the tips and tools to a happily-ever-after using the guidance of a trusted relationship expert.
Beloved marriage counselor Pastor Cal Roberson captivates millions of viewers with his eccentric personality and unabashed yet effective marriage advice - and Marriage Ain’t for Punks is no different.
This book is a relationship gamechanger. It’s a straightforward and unapologetic dive into why people fail or struggle at one of the most popular and sought-after unions in society. But this is more than a book about marriage - it’s a book about how to manage life with another person. The principles and methods Roberson provides are not theoretical or hearsay but tested and proven. The book will methodically probe into the hearts of listeners and force them to confront themselves and be accountable for their own emotions and actions.
Even though some marriages look like a hot mess, transparency, honesty, and downright fearlessness are the traits that make a great marriage. A great marriage is about refusing to allow pettiness to destroy the loving connection couples share. These people are not weaklings. They are not quitters. They know that marriage ain’t for punks!
I smiled when I saw the title of Calvin Roberson’s book because this is something The Hubby & I say to each other all of the time. I fell into the Lifetime trap of believing – Boy Meets Girl – They Fall in Love – Then Live Happily Ever After. That was until I said, Yes when my husband was on his knees proposing to me.
Marriage is Work. I once advised someone that, and they laughed in my face. The same guy revisited our conversation after his second Marriage in 7 years and agreed Marriage is Work. When people ask me the secret to being married for over 12 years and still having so much fun together – my answer remains the same – We Work on it. We work on it because it’s something we both want!
Marriage Counselor Calvin Roberson strips away the rose-colored glasses and gets honest with readers. Mr. Roberson gives tips for a successful and lasting marriage. Mr. Roberson wrote, “Sometimes the hemorrhaging is necessary” – I felt that! I love Mr. Roberson straight to the point writing style. I don’t believe in sugar-coating when it comes to Marriage. If you want a no-holds-barred guide to Marriage – look no further.
I would recommend this book to everyone, no matter what your status is – the information in this book is valuable to the masses.
