    About this audiobook

    Whether you are newlyweds, been happily married awhile, or currently going through a rough patch in your marriage, the following statement is truly true. Arguments WILL happen.


    Even the best of marriages WILL have arguments. Yes, even in your happy marriage you WILL have arguments. 

    I'm not wishing bad on your relationship. No person is perfect right? Which means no two 'persons' in a relationship are perfect. 


    What separates "good" marriages from "bad" marriages isn't the absence of arguments. It's how frequently, disrespectfully, or selfishly they happen. 


    Do you have the emotional intelligence needed to avoid arguing frequently? Or are you thinking that just loving each other, automatically means you and your spouse will communicate perfectly? 


    For over 20 years I have closely and obsessively watched spouses communicate in marriage. Many many failed due to lack of knowledge on the subject. I've also watched many succeed and observed why they succeeded. 


    What separates marriages that were happy marriages and got it right, from, the marriages that weren't sacred marriages, and got it wrong? 


    Communication skills. 

    Jesus made communication in marriage simple, with ONE verse. 


    Mark 10:8 NASB:" AND THE TWO SHALL BECOME ONE FLESH; so they are no longer two, but one flesh.


    That's it.


    When I give my workshops, have panel discussions, or counsel my clients they are absolutely amazed on how deeply Jesus' verse quickly and simply leads to less arguments. Let this book be one of your marital aids.


    Our flesh typically thinks of what the "self" wants. Not what the two "selfs" that are now in a significant spiritual union wants. 


    Marriage was meant to be a earthly model, of a heavenly union.

    We CANNOT approach a Christian marriage with worldly thoughts. And, let me say this clearly and respectfully. If it is not Jesus leading your marriage, by applying His truths to your marriage, then you are leading your marriage from an earthly perspective, not a Christian perspective. 


    Communication in marriage is complicated. But, who says it has to be difficult? Usually, your arguments could have been solved quickly, and easily, had you had marriage aids. 


    Marriage workshops are an aid.


    A marriage counselor is an aid.


    This book that you should really, prayerfully consider buying now is also an aid.


    In this book you will learn to:


    How to communicate Jesus's way

    How to communicate fairly, and unselfishly

    How to wisely avoid many arguments

    How to create more unity in your marriage

    How to peacefully navigate through heated arguments

    How to understand and respect each other's differences

    How to create more unity in your marriage


    BONUS


    During my 20 years of research, I also took my observations into Spoken Word Poetry. Included in this book, are also poems biblical based that shares quick insights on what I have observed, poetically expressed. If you don't get this book, I encourage you to find some marital aids that can help you with communication in marriage. I have watched WAYY too many spouses fail, all because of a refusal to rely on anything other than their own emotional intelligence.

    Pride, by far, ends more relationships than death does.

    Felice Mathieu | Speaker Poet | Marriage Communication Coach My mother died of HIV when I was 12. I never knew my real father, let alone saw a picture of him. My stepfather I knew, and he was with me at the hospital at the time my mother was dying. That same week, my stepfather leaves me with some family friends, and goes to Haiti. Around two months later, I am told that his ex-wife murdered him.  That leaves my last living blood relative. My granduncle. He dies a few months later of Diabetes. Within a year I lose all of my blood relatives. I bring all that up to say this, those circumstances made me REALLY obsessively study relationships. Basically, what I needed to know is what made relationships fail or succeed. Every relationship I would then form would be in an extension of a family that I would never have.  I was the kid in middle school, high school, and college that conducted surveys and questionnaires on notebooks. Asking everyone and anybody to take it, to collect data I could analyze. I would interview married couples. I would take polls. I read books related to relationships, but more specifically intimate relationships. Why that focus? Well, I needed to repopulate the 'Mathieu generation'. I had a really strong desire to gain enough knowledge, that would help me form lifelong relationships, hoping to fill that void the effects of having no family had on me. My research revealed that the #1 problem all relationships faced was poor communication skills. I took that knowledge into Spoken Word Poetry on and off for 10 years. Now as a Speaker Poet, and author I help Christian spouses communicate effectively, quickly, without misunderstandings or disrespect. To have fewer arguments, and more unity.
