Ryan and Selena Frederick were newlyweds when they landed in Switzerland to pursue Selena's dream of training horses. Neither of them knew at the time that Ryan was living out a death sentence brought on by a worsening genetic heart defect. Soon it became clear he needed major surgery that could either save his life--or result in his death on the operating table. The young couple prepared for the worst. When Ryan survived, they both realized that they still had a future together. But the near loss changed the way they saw all that would lie ahead. They would live and love fiercely, fighting for each other and for a Christ-centered marriage, every step of the way. Fierce Marriage is their story, but more than that, it is a call for married couples to put God first in their relationship, to measure everything they do and say to each other against what Christ did for them, and to see marriage not just as a relationship they should try to keep healthy but also as one worth fighting for in every situation. With the gospel as their foundation, Ryan and Selena offer hope and practical help for common struggles in marriage, including communication problems, sexual frustration, financial stress, family tension, screen-time disconnection, and unrealistic expectations.

Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord God, that I will send a famine on the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord. ~ Amos 8:11, NKJV We as Christians, so often hunger for the things of this world without regard to the cry of our Savior to reach out and touch those in need all around us. The choices we make each day of our lives send a clear message to the multitude as to whom we have chosen to serve. Gods Word says we can only serve one master. Our actions, our behaviors, our words, and every decision we make shows the world and our loved ones who we have chosen as the Lord of our lives. I challenge you to ask yourself, Who do I serve? Have you been obedient to the call God has on your life, or do you choose to ignore that quiet whisper guiding you to His plan of a hope and a future? I urge you to fully surrender your life to Him and choose this day to serve your Savior, Jesus Christ, rather than the world and the enemy of your soul. Who you serve is black or white. There is no gray area.
