About the book

Married couples are an at-risk population. Thousands have been shipwrecked and did not survive. Of those that survived, not all are thriving by any means. Experts are now predicting a coming tsunami.

The Marriage Ark is a definitive blueprint that can equip couples to build a vessel — or examine their existing vessel — that is capable of enduring high winds and lashing waves. Through the story of Noah, enduring principles are found that provide vital elements for an intimate and lasting marriage.
