Wounded marriages can be healed! Separation is not necessarily the beginning of the end. Marriage counselor Gary Chapman believes that the biblical ideal for a separated couple calls for reconciliation, and he shows how to achieve this through small, simple steps. He deals with commonly asked questions such as: Is it appropriate to date while I am separated? How do I relate to my children during this time? What if my spouse doesn"t want to reconcile? Recognizing that restoration will not happen for everyone, Dr. Chapman also gives insightful advice for those who experience the pain of divorce.
