“If you have children at home, discussing marriage without examining the way kids impact your relationship is like trying to explain skiing without mentioning snow. Patrick and Ruth Schwenk address this often-overlooked aspect of marriage head-on in their fine book For Better or for Kids. I wish Lisa and I could have read this thoughtful look at how a married couple can grow closer as their kids grow older when our kids were young.” – Gary Thomas, Author of Sacred Marriage and Sacred Parenting

“If you’re married with children, yet struggling to be a united team, I highly recommend For Better or for Kids. Patrick and Ruth do a fantastic job of offering biblical encouragement and practical tools that will help strengthen your “team us”!” – Ashleigh Slater, author of Team Us: Marriage Together

“In a day when parenting can become just another task-list entry for young couples, Patrick and Ruth Schwenk offer a needed reality check in For Better or for Kids. With a been-there, learned-that, humorous and conversational style, they remind couples like them who are wondering, “What just happened?” that this is real life—marriage is unavoidably changed by good parenting, parenting is necessarily dependent on a good marriage, and it is all good by God’s design.” – Clay & Sally Clarkson, authors and speakers on Christian home and parenting, Whole Heart Ministries, Mom Heart Ministry, SallyClarkson.com
