Just as marriage is a complex relationship, with layers of mess mixed up with layers of beauty, this book is also a multifaceted look at a life shared by two people. By featuring stories from writers with varied perspectives and experiences, Dawn has created a meaningful mosaic of marriage that will encourage the heart of every married person, from the honeymoon to their final days.

Mary Carver , coauthor of Choose Joy

Ecclesiastes 4:12 says that a cord of three strands cannot be quickly broken. In The Heart of Marriage , Dawn Camp has gathered story after story of marriages that reflect this truth. Its a wonderfully encouraging book to pick up and read again and again. This one is a keeper!

Dee Kasberger , artist, RedLetterWords.com

There are lots of great books that can teach you how to have a great marriagethe how-to of marriage. But there are not many books that can remind you why working hard to have a great marriage is so vitally importantthe motivation behind a great marriage. The Heart of Marriage stands apart as a collection of marriage stories that will make you laugh, cry, and remember why you fell in love and got married in the first place. After thirty-plus years of being married and working with countless other married couples, we can wholeheartedly recommend this much-needed book and look forward to The Heart of Marriage inspiring couples in their marriage journeys for years to come. Well done!

Brad & Tami Miller , TandemMarriage . com

The best marriage books tell stories because stories penetrate the deep places where rules and regulations cannot go. Dawn Camp has gathered a glorious kaleidoscope of true tales, reminding us that every marriage is unique because every marriage is created between two unique people. This is a book for the newlywed and the one celebrating a hard-earned anniversary. This is a book for the disillusioned and the starry-eyed. The stories in this collection are as varied as the marriages behind them, but together they offer needed wisdom for the always good but sometimes difficult work that is the making of a marriage.

Christie Purifoy , author of Roots and Sky

Foreword

M y adorable, almost-twenty-six-year-old medical student was recently home for just a few days. Hes been so busy studying and preparing for his board exams that its rare for us to have time to chat about the good stuff of life. That day, we talked about everything under the sun. Maybe Im just prejudiced because Im his momma (almost certainly true), but hes one of my favorite people to spend an afternoon with. Hes smart, funny, passionate, and really interested in our advice on important things.

As it often does with twentysomethings, the subject of marriage came up and we all (including my husband) tossed around our ideas about the ideal time to get married these days. Is early marriage better? Should you wait until you have a more stable income? Until youre done with all your schooling? Until your bank account reassures you that youre ready? (That usually never happens, by the way!)

Then my winsome husband, Stevie, piped up, Well, you just need to decide when you want the real suffering to start, thats all.

Yep, thats what he said. And we all started laughingme, especially hard. Because its true. And its so rare that someone will just say it.

I even added, Yeah, you just have to decide when youre ready to take up your cross, Tay.

And coming off Easter weekend, the metaphors were easy to see.

Yes, of course, theres the really wonderful side of marriagethe sheer joy and love you feel when everything is right and theres no tension and no misunderstanding and no disappointment.
