There are not enough resources that talk about honest, creative, and relevant conflict resolution. We believers typically avoid conflict or simply pretend that it doesnt exist because we are supposed to have all the answers. In their new book, Dont Go to Bed Angry: Stay Up and Fight ! , Deb and Ron bring the issue into the light and give couples real stories and real tools to bring about real peace. The Hendersons need the help found in this book, and so do you!

Wow! Deb DeArmond and her husband, Ron, hit the ball out of the park with their new book on marriage.

When my sons were teenagers, they often argued. Finally one day, I sat them on our couch and said, Im going to teach you how to fight. They were shocked. They thought they were experts . I gave a couple of steps to keep their arguments respectful and to help them own their own feelings. In their book, the DeArmonds have set us all down on their own couch and given us the principles to do right what we probably all do, and do wrong. These principles work! The sooner you start, the sooner you reap the benefits.

We often say that if theres no conflict in your marriage, one of you has disappeared. Ron and Deb DeArmond take that thought several steps further, teaching us that conflict between a couple is not only normal and expected, but that it can be a healthy and helpful part of the relationship! In Dont Go to Bed Angry , the DeArmonds have done a masterful job of bringing their own vulnerability as well as years of hard-won wisdom to the table. Through stories, studies, and hands-on interactive guides, they show us how learning the art of conflict, confrontation, and resolution can help create stronger and more intimate marriages. Were excited to see how the influence of the DeArmonds and their message will impact generations to come!
