A Marriage Full of A.W.E. If you think intimacy in marriage is an impossible goal, think again. Even if your relationship is the high maintenance variety, you can still find that meaningful connection you are seeking by cultivating three important ingredients in your relationship: Affection, Warmth, and Encouragement--AWE. Sharing personal stories of both success and failure, Jim Burns' candid and vulnerable style will encourage you to work toward rekindling the fires of your romance, no matter how chilly the coals may have grown. Important areas discussed include communication, sexuality, friendship, forgiveness, worship, attitudes, and priorities. This is not a pie-in-the-sky approach to marriage. The challenges of everyday life with a spouse are faced head-on by someone who has not only experienced them himself but also coached hundreds of other couples and individuals in their struggles. The practical help he offers will equip you to tackle the real-life issues of marriage and find true and lasting intimacy with your spouse. Each chapter includes helpful follow-up exercises and questions for personal reflection.

"No one is wiser on the subject of marital intimacy than Jim Burns." --Steve Arterburn Author of Every Man’s Battle "Marriages are ‘made’ not ‘born’ at the wedding altar. Marriages can be intimate and supportive, or distant and destructive. If you want the latter, don’t read this book. Jim Burns offers practical ideas for those who want to create an intimate and supportive marriage." --Gary D. Chapman, PhD Author of The Five Love Languages
"Everyone longs for an intimate marriage. And Jim Burns, after more than three decades of marriage with Cathy, shows us how we can have just that. This is a book with heart. Don’t miss out on its message." --Drs. Les & Leslie Parrott Seattle Pacific University, authors of Love Talk
"In Creating an Intimate Marriage, Jim Burns is not only a trusted counselor but a transparent one as well. Whether your marital fire is slowly fading or has long been extinguished, married couples will appreciate his wisdom and own personal experience in rekindling the spark we all long for with our spouse." --Hayley DiMarco Author of Dateable and Marriable
"Creating an intimate marriage isn’t just knowing what to do but doing what you know. Rarely do we see a book that does both! In a very practical, encouraging way Jim Burns will challenge you to make your marriage a priority and give you the steps to actually do it. This book should be required reading for all marriages at any stage of life. We highly recommend it!" --David & Claudia Arp – Authors of the 10 Great Dates series and Suddenly They’re 13—or the Art of Hugging a Cactus
