THE CHERISH MARRIAGE EVENT HOSTED BY MID-MICHIGAN COMMUNITY FAMILY MINISTRIES Most marriages survive by gritting teeth and holding on. But marriages will not only survive but thrive when husbands and wives learn practical ways to cherish one another. In Cherish, his newest book, Gary Thomas shows that although there are countless marriages consisting of two people just going through the motions, there are real ways this pattern can be reversed: when husbands and wives learn to cherish one another in proven, loving, everyday actions and words.
