By applying these principles, Kay was able to see her marriage turn around in as dramatic fashion as I've ever witnessed. Her marriage was doomed for the ash heap of divorce, but because of her willingness to follow a biblical based plan, it's alive, active, and growing today. The man she once couldn't wait to get away from is now her best friend … and the one with whom she wants to spend the rest of her life.

The secret doesn't just belong to John and Kay—it's available for everyone who desires to have a strong family and a fulfilling marriage. I look forward to the years ahead and get excited about what can happen in families all over this country. I'd love to see hundreds of thousands of husbands, wives, and children make a commitment to do whatever it takes to honor God by following a clear plan for family intimacy. I believe it can happen; in fact, that's the whole goal of our ministry! One of the places you can start is by putting a biblical plan for relationships into action.

To keep our relationships off the rocks, we need to follow two essential steps: we must gain knowledge and then skills at applying what we've learned. The more we learn and practice what we've learned, the more gifted we'll become at developing intimate relationships within our homes.
