Gil and Brenda deliver a fresh style of encouragement to this ever-growing population in society- the blended family. Willing to speak the obvious from their own step family adventure, the Stuarts share heart to heart as they walk the walk. Because 60% of remarriages end within the first two years, it is vital to encourage and equip these marriages with practical applications. Bringing together different traditions, rules and personalities from two different families into one home is tough. This is no cake walk, but it can work, and work quite well. It takes trust, honesty and commitment to the stepfamily process with a "no turning back" attitude. The process of leaving a healthy, strong legacy for remarried couples and their families is what Restored & Remarried is all about. R & R's message is, "If you ain't got the marriage, you ain't got nothin'."

Your remarriage and step family faces many unique challenges. You'll find this 8-week workbook practical, encouraging and a great resource for your stepfamily adventure. Your "opportunities for growth" are directly addressed with no-nonsense tools you can use now. Each week will offer insight and conversation that will help strengthen your marriage. Because all relationships are not the same, the tools provided can be customized to your unique situation. In a small group setting, you'll have a guide as you dialogue with others around the terms and concepts related to remarriage and stepfamily life. This workbook can also be used for "just the two of you." You can never get enough support and encouragement in your marriage. We are honored to be part of your process of leaving a healthy, strong legacy for your family.

Restored & Remarried Leader's Guide is for Small Groups who would like information and encouragement for their marriage and family. This resource can be used in several different ways to meet the needs of your group. During a Sunday School, weekly or monthly small group, there is a lot of flexibility here. You will need to purchase the accompanying Small Group DVD to present this curriculum. Purchase it at www.restoredandremarried.com. Each participant[ant will need their own workbook and may share an R & R book.
