Surviving the Military Marriage

When it comes to successful families, the basic principles are simple. Applying those principles in the real world is where the complications arise. And if your real world includes year-long deployments, months-long temporary duty assignments, and frequent relocations, the complications increase to the point that sometimes survival is a family’s only realistic goal.For those living this life, Pastor Steve Davis provides a book “packed with wit and wisdom for the military family” * that contains “page after page of practical, Biblical advice on how to make the military family work.” * Combining his own years of experience serving military families with input from dozens of service members and their spouses, he lays out a strategy to move a marriage from survival mode to long-term thriving. Surviving the Military Marriage “is the book I wish we’d had when (my military) dad retired. And this is the book I wish I had been given when I first became a pastor to military people.” *(* From the Foreword by Pastor Michael Fletcher)

Steve Davis is the Lead and Founding Pastor of Spout Springs Church, a dynamic, non-traditional church near Fort Bragg, North Carolina. Originally, he wanted to be a stand-up comic, then a seminary professor. He finally discovered his true calling when he combined those two with his life passion to help people grow into all God designed them to be. He and his wife, Kim, have three daughters and two grandchildren. In his spare time, he abuses himself doing CrossFit with people who are much better athletes than himself.
