There will be three major questions asked and answered in the 6+ hours of content:
1. Why do we negatively react to each other in marriage? This will be explained in what is called the Crazy Cycle.
2. How do I best motivate my spouse? The Energizing Cycle answers this question.
3. What if my spouse does not respond to me? The Rewarded Cycle informs us what to do.
Save the Marriage System by Lee Baucom
It’s More Than Just Marriage Rescue. It’s About Marriage Revived!
Who wants to be in a “mediocre” marriage relationship?
Most couples believe that their marital problems mean that they are destined to, at best, have an “okay” marriage. This could not be further from the truth. You don’t have to settle for anything less than the marriage relationship of your dreams!

FireProof
A feel-good drama, Fireproof has a strong agenda: stay married, lead an honest life, and let your faith in a higher power help guide you. A still boyish-looking Kirk Cameron (Growing Pains) stars as Caleb Holt, a mercurial-tempered firefighter whose marriage is on the rocks. He clearly enjoys his status as a hero, but it comes at the expense of his marriage. His wife Catherine (Erin Bethea) is tired of the distance and wants him to make more of an effort at home, rather than surf porn on the Internet and hoard his earnings toward his dream fishing boat instead of helping out her disabled mother. Faced with impending divorce, Caleb’s dad challenges him to follow the “40-day love dare,” in which each task (cook her dinner, say nothing negative, etc.) is meant for him to better understand love and commitment and try and win his wife back.
