Fierce Marriage
Radically Pursuing Each Other in Light of Christ’s Relentless Love
About
"An incredible read that will inspire, encourage, and bring hope to your relationship."
--Jefferson Bethke, New York Times bestselling author
When Ryan and Selena Frederick were newlyweds, neither of them knew that Ryan would soon need major surgery that would either save his life or result in his death on the operating table. By God's grace, Ryan survived. But the near loss changed the way they saw all that would lie ahead. They would live and love fiercely, fighting for each other every step of the way. And they would dedicate themselves to helping others do the same.
Fierce Marriage is a call to put Christ at the center of your marriage, measuring everything you do and say to each other against what Christ did for you. With passionate personal stories and practical, gospel-centered advice, the Fredericks help you handle five key areas of marriage: priorities, communication, money, sex, and conflict. Their hopeful approach will help you to see marriage as not just a relationship you should try to keep healthy but also one worth fighting for--in every situation.
"Fierce Marriage is the story of a couple learning and striving to put Christ above all else, in all matters of marriage. . . . When two young authors get the root this right, you can surely trust the fruit."--Gary Thomas, bestselling author of Sacred Marriage
"Ryan and Selena passionately share God's truth about marriage, encouraging husbands and wives to pursue and fulfill their purpose of having a fierce marriage that points others to the heart of God."--Aaron and Jennifer Smith, founders of HusbandRevolution.com and UnveiledWife.com

"I often hear people talk a lot but in the end don't end up really saying anything. We use a lot of words but end up skating around the topics most people want direct and clear insights and answers for.

This book will give you direct and concrete solutions for your marriage, young or old."
