Spring, summer, winter, fall. Marriages are perpetually in a state of transition, continually moving from one season to anotherΓÇöperhaps not annually, as in nature, but just as certainly and consistently. Sometimes we find ourselves in winterΓÇödiscouraged, detached, and dissatisfied; other times, we experience springtime with its openness, hope, and anticipation. On other occasions, we bask in the warmth of summerΓÇöcomfortable, relaxed, enjoying life. And then comes fall with its uncertainty, negligence, and apprehension. The cycle repeats itself many times throughout the life of a marriage, just as the seasons repeat themselves in nature.The seasons of marriage come and go. Each one holds the potential for emotional health and happiness, and each one has its challenges. The purpose of this book is to describe these recurring seasons of marriage, help you and your spouse identify which season your marriage is in, and show you how to enhance your marriage in all four seasons.
