- Synopsis
- [from the inside book flap:] TWO-MINUTE OFFENSE FOR A WINNING MARRIAGE: A message to women only, from the publisher: It's Monday night again. Your husband sits enrapt in Monday Night Football, watching intently as if his life depends on who makes the next touchdown. As usual, when you speak, he hardly glances your way. All he cares about is football, you silently muse. If only he could get half as excited about our relationship. Could there be a way to communicate how you feel to your husband using the language he understands the best--the language of football? Doug Kingsriter says yes. But what could football and marriage possibly have in common? Consider this: the success of both hinges on being a unified team. In football, it's playing together. In marriage, it's being in the game of life together, with singleness of heart and purpose. It's working together to reach the goal. That's this book's definition of a winning marriage. Two-Minute Offense for a Winning Marriage will help you communicate what you feel in the non-threatening, often humorous context of football. Your husband will finally understand what you are trying to say. In a way, this book teaches football to women and marriage to men--foreign languages to each. It provides a frame of reference in which husbands and wives can discuss and improve their relationship. It will turn on the lights in your marriage arena. Through stories and personal experiences gained as college All-American and National Football League Super Bowl player, Doug Kingsriter matches the game of football--the players, the opposition, the strategies, the coach, the playing field, and the plays--with marriage. In so doing, he helps men understand the obstacles to a successful marriage, then shows how they can go about overcoming those barriers. In football, the two-minute offense utilizes tried and true plays to make big gains while there's still time on the clock. It can turn sure defeat into victory. And that's just what this book is designed to do for you.
