Everybody around us this summer, I say everybody, but our eyes were open to it in the last year that there's a lot of folks in their 30s that are our age that we're seeing their marriage fall apart and that scared us.

After 11 years, Brett's marriage had grown stale.

He wanted something better for he and his wife.

That's when they found our podcast online and began listening almost every day.

Focus on the families helped our marriage from the standpoint of opening our hearts to see things from the other's perspective and to make sure that God is centered in our marriage.

I'm Jim Daly. Thanks to the generosity of friends like you, Brett's marriage is getting better.

Working together, we can give families hope.

It's part of what happens in a relationship.
