Mended is a test-turned-testimony of what it is to be broken beyond repair by the ultimate betrayal and rebuilt again by God’s mighty, merciful hand. In this book you are not left with just a sad tale of a pastor’s family crisis that ended well, but with practical ways any couple could grow together and remain emotionally connected.

We know so many couples have had to walk through an affair, whether emotional or physical, and those who haven’t need tools to protect their marriage from it, so we pray Rick & Tiffany’s story helps bring healing for you.
