See-Through Marriage: Experiencing The Freedom and Joy Of Being Fully Known and Fully Loved

Written by Ryan Frederick and Selena Frederick

Narrated by Adam Verner and Sarah Zimmerman

Marriage is all about sharing: sharing space, sharing joys and sorrows, sharing hopes and dreams. Yet we often hold back a part of ourselves because we fear that being wholly transparent—about our past, our desires, our failures, our faults—will bring judgment, rejection, or even just unwanted friction to our relationship. We are afraid to be fully known. As a result, we never experience being fully loved.



Fierce Marriage authors Ryan and Selena Frederick think your marriage deserves better. In this new, paradigm-shifting book, they show you how to develop a see-through marriage, one that is marked by full transparency and confident vulnerability. Through personal stories, testimonies from other couples, and biblical truth, they make the case that living authentically in front of each other is the only way to experience love the way we were designed to.



If you desire an honest, no-holding-back marriage where you are fully known, fully accepted, and fully loved, you need this book.

Reviews for See-Through Marriage

[Jessica Grissom · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

A lot of good points and practical application. I love the questions at the end of each chapter. I wish the authors gave a clearer statement regarding abuse. The lines of abuse get blurred around “sin issues” and it becomes almost impossible if one is in a situation to establish good boundaries and separation if needed. I hoped the authors would state more about going to see trauma informed therapist - it’s not a good idea to go to a pastor for certain issues because they don’t typically have the training for trauma therapy. Listen to Leslie Vernick’s YouTube video about difficult, disappointing or destructive behaviors and then balance the stuff in this book with practical application.

Excellent practical book on productivity and time management. Hyatt disagrees with the common view of productivity — doing more faster — simply because while this works in a manufacturing economy is doesn’t work in a knowledge economy. You can improve the speed and capacity of machines but human beings cannot run faster and longer without burning out. Perhaps our view of productivity causes so much burnout.For Hyatt productivity is not about getting more done faster, it’s about getting the right things done. And in order to do that we need focus. And focus is what life in the modern world is so hard to do. We work for the “Distraction Economy” where so many things seemed purposefully designed to keep us from focusing on doing what is most important (Facebook, Instagram, phone calls, sms, email, notifications, open plan offices, etc). All this stops us from doing deep work which is what is required for many of us to succeed in our work life. When attention is such a scarce resource we need to learn how to focus. That’s what this book is about. I highly recommend it.QUOTES“What will your life have been, in the end, but the sum total of everything you spent it focusing on?”Oliver Burkeman“Everybody ends up somewhere in life. A few people end up somewhere on purpose.”Andy Stanley“A schedule defends from chaos and whim. It is a net for catching days.”Annie Dillard

Writing: 4.5; Theme: 5.0; Content: 5.0; Language: 5.0; Overall: 4.5

While this volume is mostly for time management within vocational settings, Mr. Hyatt shares principles that can be implemented in vocation and in life. He gives valuable principles that will help the reader to focus more on getting the right things done, rather than getting "the most" done. Highly recommend for those who need to become more productive by focusing on "achieving more by doing less."

I’ve read all of Michael Hyatt’s previous works so I was looking forward to reading this. If you are a regular listener to his podcast and reader of his blog, there isn’t anything new in this book. But that’s not a critique. If you buy into Hyatt’s method of productivity, this is the book you give to friends and colleagues to explain his methods, without them having to listen to hours of podcasts.

It’s a good book that has surmised all of Hyatt’s advice in an easy to follow guide. It’s a must read for anyone that feels bogged down in work
