HEART CENTERED MARRIAGE

In an age when marriages don't appear to be the eternal unions they're meant to be, Thoele brings listeners a guide to keeping couples together. Her first-hand accounts of troubled marriages--and how her suggestions helped put them back on track--give insight into how to make almost any relationship last. Thoele's philosophy itself is a marriage of psychology and spirituality. The tender yet urgent timbre of her voice is refreshing. As she recounts her own tales of marital strife, she laughs good-naturedly at herself, keeping the performance fresh and realistic, not preachy.
