Honest to the core and laugh-out-loud funny, marriage coaches Dave and Ann share the one key secret and its principles that brought them from the brink of divorce to a healthy and vibrant relationship.

The night of their tenth wedding anniversary, Dave and Ann Wilson concluded their special date by going to “park” in the parking lot of the church they were about to start together—at least that was Daves plan. Then Ann said the words that had been burning in her mind over the past year, “Ive lost feelings for you.”

Divorce seemed inevitable but starting that night, God began to illuminate to both Ann and Dave the mostly overlooked secret to a heathy marriage: you cannot sustain a horizontal relationship between husband and wife until the vertical relationship with Christ is healthy.

Today, as co-founding pastors of a megachurch and an NFL chaplain, Dave and Ann share the hard-earned but easy-to-do lessons and principles that will ensure a strong vertical marriage. With a unique style and a brand-new perspective on martial health, Vertical Marriage will guide you to building a vibrant relationship in every area from conflict resolution to romance—even though Dave is still figuring that one out.

Raw and packed with authenticity, humor, biblical principles, and compelling stories, Dave and Ann reveal Gods martial design to anyone who is married, preparing for marriage, or desperate to save a relationship teetering on the edge of disaster. Through their intimate, at times hilarious and at times deeply poignant, narrative, they candidly share from both a husband and a wifes unique perspective the elusive secret that can transform your marriage to everything you hoped it would be.
