Marital Misery? You're Not Alone Contemplating divorce? (Gasp) "Never!" Murder? (Hmmmmm) "Well, maybe...! "If your marriage resembles a combat zone more than a covenant commitment, you're in good company. "If You Don't Die to Self, I May Have to Kill You" is packed with juicy foibles and misdeeds candidly expressed by Emmy-nominated TV news reporter Karen Long . Follow her behind the scenes to discover solid spiritual ammunition targeting attitude, gratitude, contentment, forgiveness, self-denial, and even suffering. Romance, suspense, and intrigue mark Karen's antics, and "what not to dos" reinforce biblical principles that light the way from marital misery to a harmonious hitch. … Contemplating Divorce? (Gasp) "Never! " Murder? (Pause) "Well...maybe! " The slogan for The Divorce Store reads: "When 'till death do you part' isn't soon enough." Can you relate? "Instead of just waiting for Paul to keel over, I spent years looking for a younger woman for him, someone who enjoys doing laundry." "I calculated I'd forgiven Paul the biblically "required" seven times seventy--490 times--over the course of one weekend alone..." "When 'two become one flesh, ' you either get some unity or you get Frankenstein. We got a monster of a marriage..." When your marriage resembles a combat zone more than a covenant commitment, you need a few weapons, er..."tools" at your disposal. Former award-winning TV news reporter Karen Long candidly expresses juicy foibles and misdeeds marking her treacherous memorable twenty-year marriage with Paul. The happy ending? They're still married. Only now they're laughing. Karen will arm you with solid spiritual ammunition targeting attitude, gratitude, contentment, forgiveness, and--of course--suffering. Humorously revealing her hard-won wisdom, this book is your ticket out of marital misery and into a harmonious hitch. "A book just like the author--witty, funny, charming, and full of depth. It will make you laugh and cry, but mostly you will learn about yourself and what it takes to finish the marriage journey with a smile on your face." Congressman James E. Rogan Story Behind the Book Karen Long gave up a lucrative career as a TV news reporter "broadcasting live from the mean streets of Los Angeles " to go home to a husband, kids, and real action and drama. She tells of being on the frontlines of the home front in this evangelical expose on the epidemic of marital misery. "Over the years, " Karen says, "myhusband, Paul, pushed all my buttons, including the little red one that can blast a nuclear family of five into oblivion. Paul often brought out the very worst in me...allowing me to see my great need for a Savior instead of a good divorce attorney. Yes, this would be a terribly tragic story if it wasn't such a terrific, true testimony for the Lord."
