The Intentional Marriage: A Guide to Building Love That Lasts is a powerful, Christ-centered roadmap for couples who are ready to stop drifting and start building a marriage that thrives-on purpose.
In a culture where marriages often slip into disconnection, frustration, and unmet expectations, Bryan and Stephanie Vignery offer a clear and practical path back to what truly matters. Drawing from over two decades of counseling experience, real-life stories, and biblical truth, they help couples uncover the deeper roots beneath conflict-beliefs, wounds, and patterns that quietly shape the health of their relationship.
This isn't about surface-level fixes or quick communication tips.
It's about transformation from the inside out.
You'll discover how your identity shapes your relationship, how unaddressed shame impacts connection, and how to replace reactive patterns with intentional, Christ-centered choices that lead to lasting change.
Through relatable insight and practical guidance, you'll learn to:
- Strengthen communication
- Rebuild trust
- Deepen emotional and spiritual intimacy
- Break destructive cycles
- Build a marriage grounded in covenant-not convenience
Whether you are newly married, navigating challenges, or simply longing for more, this book will help you align your relationship with God's design and experience a love that doesn't just last-but grows stronger over time.
This is more than a marriage book.
It's an invitation to build a relationship that reflects Christ-intentionally, daily, and for a lifetime.
