With a beautiful and unique way Steven L. Jordan, Sr. in The Sacred Driven Couple, makes the analogy between the life cycle of the butterfly and the relationship between a husband and wife. Jordan writes: "Just as the process for the butterfly is not a glamorous one, neither are the steps in the process to develop our relationships, enhance them, or, in some cases, completely revive them. But as with the butterfly, the avoidance of any stage of development could literally retard the result and kill any potential for life."

Charlene Curry's book documents her spiritual journey as a military spouse facing her own challenges in raising her family while meeting the expectations placed upon her. She shares with us the joys, the social pressures especially while living in foreign lands, fears, depression, feelings of guilt, and grief over the loss of a child. Her main source of comfort was the strength she received from placing her trust in God. Prayer was what brought her through the many difficulties and emotional turmoil she went through in her career as a military spouse. The renewed strength she gained each day from God transformed her life and thus the lives of countless others who came in contact with her. This book will be an encouragement to many readers, not only to those in the military but also to civilians. www.believebooks.com
