About this ebook
Every Reason to Leave is a personal and detailed story of one couple’s unbelieavable marital journey.
After almost ten years of marriage, Vicki Rose found herself the single mother of two young children, separated from her husband, Bill, a part owner of the New York Yankees addicted to cocaine, women, and work. Both Jewish, Vicki and Bill each came to know Jesus Christ during their 5-year separation, and amazing reconciliation and renewal soon took place. You wouldn't believe what they're marriage looks like now.
This story is an example of what God can do to restore a broken—and seemingly irreparable—marriage.
If you’re in the black hole of marital despair, thinking about divorce, and wondering if it’s worth the effort to stay married, this book is for you.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Where 50% of all marriages in the United States, regardless of religious background, end up in a divorce, you might think that breaking up is as natural as dating or marriage itself. You can find many guidance how to handle a divorce, as well as marriage counseling. Vicki & Billy Rose learned it the hard way. Their Jewish background was no guarantee for a happy marriage, neither kids or owning a sports restaurant. They had every reason to leave, and lived for more than five years separately, despite the suggestion in the book's subtitle. In Every Reason to Leave And Why We Chose to Stay Together, Vicky shares her marital journey, where unrealistic expectations, a crazy combination of demanding work, children, a drug addiction, and a household caused wounds, that reasoning or trying themselves never could heal.Fortunately. God proved to be a living, restoring God, intervening on spot, first in Vicky's life, and later in Billy's. Once Christian, the couple found biblical principles, disciplines and applies them as well. They reconciled and now have a Christ-centered, strong, and healthy marriage. The Rose family survived as an entity and now serves many others in their marital journey. Highly recommended if you're worrying about pleasing your wife or husband, longing for change or thinking of divorce as the only or best solution.
