Beyond Ordinary by Justin and Trisha Davis
I know it's been a while...but I took a holiday break. Beyond Ordinary is a story of a marriage like many other marriages that was ordinary until it broke apart, but it didn't break apart overnight instead it broke apart after years of neglect, years moving in different directions.
Justin and Trisha Davis met while they were in college, and after Trisha rejected Justin many times, after Tricia and Justin were on the team bus many times, they formed a bond. (He was a basketball player and she was a cheerleader). Soon, Justin and Trisha were inseparable.
After a less then stellar fairy tale wedding and a honeymoon, they soon had a child just about a year after their wedding. As time goes on, they suffer through different pitfalls most marriages do and many more.
While there are tons of books about relationships, this book was definitely worth your time and energy because as Justin and Trisha share their story and relate scripture to major themes including forgiveness, healing, they even tackle subjects like sex and how God truly designed it in the context of marriage.
No marriages are perfect but Justin and Trisha's testimony will touch you. I would recommend to all couples to read this book.
