Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enduring the Seasons of Marriage is all about how to have a long-lasting and fulfilling marriage. Writing in a folksy and conversational style, the authors make a comparison of farming and marriage. They relate the farmer's response to the demands and changes of each season in nature for an optimum crop to that of the married couple's reaction to the difficulties and necessary adjustments to each season of marriage for a successful relationship. Using illustrations from their own experiences of fifty-plus years of marriage, they offer suggestions for dealing with those situations that can cause stress in a marriage. Then in a clever and interesting approach, they accentuate the fact that a marriage based on God's design brings the most desirable marriage relationship. Enduring the Seasons of Marriage written by Ed and Kay Buckner is a refreshing and heart-stirring reminder of God's great gift. This amazing couple not only hit the mark in print-they have lived by the lessons they are now sharing with others. Every married couple, and those planning for marriage, would add value and depth to their relationship as a result of reading this wonderful book. Enjoy the journey!

Enduring the Seasons of Marriage brings to reality what Solomon wrote in Ecclesiastes 3:1, "For everything there is a season..." It describes how we can meet the challenges of marriage and enjoy the fruit of marriage no matter where we are in the journey. The analogy between the seasons of life represents a clear understanding of how God designed marriage relationships for every stage of life and how we should live in them to the fullest, to God's glory.
