I wish it were closer to you too because it has done so much for us. They don't sell them separately because there is much more to the experience than just the written work. I don't know if this helps, but I'm finally finding the courage to share more about what we went through and what we learned. I "came out" recently as my real name, Amanda (not Isla- my pen name), on social media and am launching a new blog in a few weeks that is marriage-centric. Look for me on facebook (or twitter or instagram @amandafromtx) at Amanda from Texas so we can stay in touch!

I know that it has been a long time since you have written these stories, but they are still helping! My boyfriend is also a firefighter, but I can see so much of myself in you, especially in Part 3 of your marriage series. <br />I really wish that there was an Re/Engage close to us, it is 1.5 hours away. Do you know if they have any plans to sell the workbooks separately? I would love to buy them and work on them myself.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06778999007000716369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-98910130395993612.post-532317205019093242013-06-16T22:22:45.404-05:002013-06-16T22:22:45.404-05:00Thank you so much for reading!

I haven't written in this series in a while (for various reasons) but will be continuing with it soon. Resentment is one of the less obvious, yet most powerful, marital issues that we need to do without! I'll pray your purification is quick and painless. ;] Amanda Cunninghamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05208963542135808791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-98910130395993612.post-85010713682413690342013-06-16T02:10:49.543-05:002013-06-16T02:10:49.543-05:00This was a great mini-series and I look forward to...This was a great mini-series and I look forward to reading more of what your write. The Lord has been really gracious to me and showed me a lot of what you had learned, but you gave me a glimpse of something I had not seen yet and for that I am truly grateful. I believed in my heart that I had forgiven all offense and that I refused to allow any new ones to take root, but what I hadn't realized was that I had some bricks in my wall where I stopped expecting certain things and had just accepted them with some resentment. I now see that's also poison that needs to be brought to the surface with all the rest of the dross, and purified out. May the Lord continue to bless you both with wisdom, joy, revelation, and intimacy in your marriage and with Him.lovefam6https://www.blogger.com/profile/17326183919565918835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-98910130395993612.post-78016066544614014052013-04-01T00:24:23.327-05:002013-04-01T00:24:23.327-05:00Thank you, Samantha, for not only reading but also...Thank you, Samantha, for not only reading but also taking the time to comment! He is the one!! Listening to Him has been the only advice that has worked for me. I am blessed to have had the opportunity to take this class and this journey. But now, having people as wonderful as you able to relate to our experience is beyond words! We have to stick together in this crazy world and lift each other up with what works- God's word. Thank you again! I hope you had a happy Easter!!Amanda Cunninghamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05208963542135808791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-98910130395993612.post-46393792299068509962013-04-01T00:00:55.237-05:002013-04-01T00:00:55.237-05:00I'm not married yet, but currently am working ...I'm not married yet, but currently am working on a relationship that may get there someday. I can't tell you how much this has been needed. I've really come to see the sinfulness I have in my heart and how I pour it out into my relationship. But reading this has helped me to identify those things and turn me back to God's grace and forgiveness. He's the one who will change my heart. Thanks so much for letting God use you in this blog!
