Marriage is not something that happens to you. It is something you build.

Hitched: Building a Marriage That Lasts is a practical, biblically grounded guide for couples who are serious about getting marriage right. Written by pastor and author J.T. Douglas - with twenty-five years of marriage and years of pastoral counseling behind every page - this book cuts through the noise and gets to what actually works.

Most marriages don't fall apart all at once. They drift - one small decision at a time - until one day two people realize they feel like strangers. Hitched is the honest, direct answer to that drift.

Organized into three parts, Hitched walks husbands through what it means to love sacrificially, lead spiritually, truly understand their wives, provide and protect, and pursue real intimacy. It walks wives through the strength of partnership, building a home, the power of respect and encouragement, growing in wisdom, and pursuing connection on purpose. Then it brings both together in an honest, compelling look at what it means for two people to become one - with God woven through the middle of it.

This is not a book about perfect marriages. It is a book about intentional ones. Every chapter ends with reflection questions and a practical weekly challenge designed to move couples from reading to actually doing something different.

Perfect for:

• Couples in any season of marriage
• Newlyweds building a strong foundation
• Husbands and wives wanting to understand each other better
• Small groups and church marriage ministry
• Anyone ready to stop surviving their marriage and start thriving in it

If you are looking for a Christian marriage book that is honest, practical, and rooted in the Word - Hitched is it.
