What are some ways of fixing a failing marriage?
Today on another Theological Thursday, Tate Cockrell – Associate Professor of Counseling – helps walk through some of the “do’s and don’ts” of seeking marriage help.

However, while selfishness is one of the main factors to deteriorate a marriage, the United States reports marriages fail after the last child leaves the house. These marriages fail because the parents can only ever remember being mom or dad. Both parents lose identity in themselves and in each other resulting in a divorce.
