"Leslie and I dated almost continuously throughout
high school, and when I went off to study journalism at the University of Missouri, she moved there so we could be close to each other. We got married when I was twenty and she was nineteen. After I graduated we moved to Chicago, where my life long dream of becoming a reporter at the Chicago Tribune was realized. Leslie, meanwhile, began her career at a savings and loan association across the street from my newspaper office.
We lived a fairy-tale life. We enjoyed the exhilaration and challenge of climbing the corporate ladder while residing in an exciting, upscale neighborhood. Leslie became pregnant with our first child, a girl we named Alison, and then later gave birth to a son, Kyle. Buoyed by our deep love for each other, our marriage was strong and secure--until someone came between us, threatening to shipwreck our relationship and land us in divorce court.
It wasn't an affair. It wasn't the resurfacing of an old flame. Instead, the someone who nearly capsized our marriage was none other than God himself. At least, that's who I blamed at the time. Ironically, it was faith in Jesus Christ--which most couples credit for contributing to the strength of their marriage--that very nearly destroyed our relationship and split us apart forever.
All because of a spiritual mismatch."
SoAmazing Review:
In Surviving a Spiritual Mismatch in Marriage,
Lee and Leslie Strobel reveal the devastating effects a
spiritual mismatch can create in a marriage, and what
they learned that kept them together.

" 'Blaine, look at me.' He raised his tearful eyes
slowly, reluctantly. There was shame written all
over this face. 'I want you to listen very closely
to what I am about to say. The next time that bully
pushes you down, here is what I want you to do--are
you listening, Blaine?' He nodded, his big wet eyes
fixed on mine. 'I want you to get up . . . and I
want you to hit him . . . as hard as you possible can.'
A look of embarrassed delight came over Blaine's face.
Then he smiled.
Good Lord--why did I give him such advice? And why was
he delighted with it? Why are some of you delighted
with it, while others are appalled?" John Eldredge,
