Relationship Grit encourages couples to go the distance to Stay Together, Grow Together & Thrive Together
When Jon and Kathryn Gordon were recently asked to rate their marriage on a scale of 1 to 10, Kathryn quickly chimed in, "before COVID or after?" While the couple can laugh about it, in their new book Relationship Grit they provide a raw, authentic, and vulnerable account of what has kept their marriage intact, despite nearly divorcing. Now, as we navigate through a global pandemic, they have put their own principles to the test to survive quarantine, a challenge many couples are facing and turning to divorce or separation as the answer. Relationship Grit provides sounds advice and practical tools, combined with real-life lessons from the trenches of marriage as told by both Jon & Kathryn that will inspire readers to put the G-R-I-T back into their own relationships.
Marriage isn't easy and often, many couples face struggles and difficult times that result in divorce. Jon and Kathryn Gordon are no exception.
