Enjoy the episode? Send us a text!Maybe your marriage is wonderful. Maybe not. Either way, you're surrounded by friends or relatives whose marriages are in trouble.Most of our programs speak directly to those whose marriages need help. However, in this program, Dr. Joe Beam shares basic but valid knowledge with you so that when you encounter someone in marital distress, you can offer more than a kind word.

It will help you know practical things to do or say that can offer help.If you're thinking that you shouldn't reach out to others if your marriage is in distress, think again.

They learn, put into practice the right things, make right the things they did wrong, demonstrate remarkable love, patience, and...forgiveness. Yet, the other mate doesn't respond. Maybe it's another person. Maybe a different lifestyle they want to pursue. Is there a time when the spouse striving to save the marriage should stop trying and accept that no matter what s/he does the marriage will end?Yes.When s/he makes that decision, are their things s/he should understand and do to build a new life that can be fulfilling and happy?Yes.Don't misunderstand, Dr. Beam fights for marriages. He encourages people not to give up easily. He and the amazing team at www.MarriageHelper.com offer many resources to help save marriages...even those that everyone else has given up on...and make those marriages good again.But, sadly
