My co-worker
thanks you for
bringing him and
his wife back
together.
Remember they
had no
communication at
all. They read
your book and
followed the
directions and
they are back
together raising
the four kid's
that they have
and now he has a
smile on his
face every
morning that I
see him. Thank
you :)

celebrating 21 years of marriage and this book will give us tips for
21 more. Thanks for sharing such an awesome pot of gold full of

Review for:
Leading Your Marriage into the Promised Land by Dr.
Derrick L. Campbell
The market is flooded with marital
self-help and advice books, yet half of all marriages
still end in divorce. A possible reason? We’ve been
looking at marriage, and the respective roles of
husbands and wives, all wrong.
Enter Dr. Campbell’s Leading Your
Marriage into the Promised Land. Rather than
peddling tired advice to hurting couples, Dr. Campbell
walks readers through marriage at its most basic,
biblical best, showing us how society has played a role
in damaging our perceptions of marriage. By building on
such foundations as teamwork, shared visions and values,
and family and financial goals, Dr. Campbell proves that
marriage, when approached and worked on correctly, can
be a fulfilling, life-long covenant, just as God
intended.
While this is not a book I’d
recommend for couples looking for that “one” book to
save their marriage, this is an eye-opening,
marriage-changing look at, specifically, the role the
husband plays in a healthy and godly marriage. Alongside
advice to husbands is a weekly, step-by-step guide to
help men work with their wives to identify their values,
needs, and goals as they work to improve their
relationship.
For couples looking for strong
biblical marriage role models and a foundation for
building a godly marital relationship, I heartily
recommend this book.

Book: Leading Your Marriage
into the Promised Land
Author: Dr. Derrick L.
Campbell
“Leading Your Marriage into the Promised Land” offers
guidance for couples on forming a unity based on common
goals and beliefs, yet placing the male figure in the
“high priest” position within the family. Drawing
from many biblical passages, Dr. Derrick L. Campbell
chooses to show that through having a common
understanding between partners, one can build a
successful family. Taking avid use of traditional
training methods, this book contains step-by-step
guidelines on reaching “the Promised Land”, as
advertised, through checklists and weekly meetings,
while allowing the reader to ascertain the goals they
themselves wish to tackle.
For anyone wishing to develop the bond between
themselves and their “better half”, take a brief look at
the processes suggested within this work. You may
find that through simply stating and discussing your
shared thoughts, the foundation for a more fruitful
marriage has been laid.

The author appears to be on a noble
mission to cut down on the ever increasing divorce rate.
He states that at one point the divorce rate for
Christians was higher than that of non-Christians. Being
involved with the Christian faith, he decides to put
together a series of exercises along with the scriptures
to see if he can solidify marriages that might be
experiencing problems.
As I see it, the exercises are
designed to get couples talking together and to set
goals in their lives that will get them to act as one
instead of going their separate ways. Even if you are
not into biblical scriptures, the exercises themselves
should save a fair number of marriages. The program does
appear to be structurally sound and if a couple follows
even a few of the examples their union should be the
better for it.
This program is so good that Dr.
Campbell might want to expand the exercises to include
people that are thinking about getting married. The
exercises would definitely help the couples see if they
are compatible before they take the big step into
matrimony.

This book takes a role reversal when
it comes saving the marriage. This is book from husband
perspective in leading the relationship and making goals
for the relationship. The book covers the roles of
husband and wife during history. Also, the book covers
the part that religion plays in the marriage. I like
that the book gives husbands or couples some pointers in
working on their relationships.
