We All Married Idiots

Author and speaker, Elaine W. Miller is proud to announce the birth of her latest book, We All Married Idiots: Three Things You Will Never Change About Your Marriage and Ten Things You Can . Now you may be thinking "Why is a preacher's wife calling her husband an idiot?" Here's her explaination:

I married an idiot–and so did my spouse. The word, “idiot” is derived from the Greek word meaning “common man.” Aren’t we all common man? In fact, there is only One who was uncommon man–Jesus Christ. Elaine W. Miller encourages couples to keep their eyes fixed on Jesus and run a marriage marathon like an idiot, but not like a fool. An idiot may stumble or fall, but a fool runs the wrong way.

We All Married Idiots teaches husbands and wives to stop concentrating on the three things you will never change in your marriage and begin focusing on the ten things you can. Then, you will esteem your mate as a gift to treasure, not as an idiot to tolerate. You can purchase the book here.

My Review:
Elaine W. Miller is a visionary who truly sees what it takes to make a marriage work. She provides practial advice on the simple things that we can do to show our spouses that we love them while showing ourselves that we too have things that we need to work on.

The book combines humor and Christian faith in a way that is easy and enjoyable to read. Each mini story of Elaine's personal life concludes with advice on how to learn from her mistakes, followed by a prayer. She opens up on the blunders that her and her husband encountered within their marriage to show that we are all human, yet there is always room for growth.

We All Married Idiots: Three Things You Will Never Change About Your Marriage and Ten Things You Can
is a must read for anyone who is currently, has been, or is considering marriage.

The author sent me the above book for review purposes. She will allow me to keep the book. I have no other connection to and have received no other compensation from Elaine W. Miller.

One of the greatest assets a writer can have is a critique group that will allow you to share, offer constructive criticism, and support you in your journey. This month two of the women that in our group have some wonderful reasons to celebrate their hard work.

My dear friend, Lisa M. Buske, brought a piece of writing to last month's writer's group in which she was planning on submitting to ALIFE Magazine. The piece was read, and revisions were made to optimize the beauty of the words. Lisa forged ahead with her submission and today she received her response. Next month, ALIFE will be publishing her article, and offered her a contract. WAY TO GO LISA !

Here is a link to the homepage: http://www.alliancelife.org/.

We are so proud of her and her mission to educate the world on how she has transformed her life in the aftermath of tragedy. To find out more about Lisa, visit her website at http://lisabuske.weebly.com/.

The amazing and humorous Elaine W. Miller, the co-founder of our writing group, is celebrating the release of her latest book, We All Married Idiots.Three Things You Will Never Change About Your Marriage and Ten Things You Can.
