Here is what one couple leading a Marriage 911 class in Florida wrote in their ministry newsletter...

Yes, Your Marriage Can Be Saved By Joe and Michelle Williams

Some of you all the way from Wisconsin to South Florida have e-mailed me about the class my husband and I are leading...wishing you could be a part of it.  And while we have not yet developed a way for you to be a part of the actual class from a distance, I wanted to share with you a book that can take you through the same principles.  This book Yes, Your Marriage Can Be Saved, is written by the same people who developed the course we are teaching, which is now called Marriage 911, but which was formerly called Reconciling God's Way.  The couple, who wrote the book and developed the course, went through a lengthy separation like my husband and I, but, in addition, their marriage to each other was the third marriage for each of them. They were tired of divorcing and were determined to work things out.  When they did, they sat down and listed the things that had worked for them.  This list eventually turned into a course, which has been very successful all over the country. Now they have written a book, which delves even more deeply into the principles we address in the class. The amazing thing about it, is that the principles they describe as working for them are pretty much the same ones I talk about in Broken Heart on Hold.  The truths that reunited them were the same ones that worked to reunite my husband and I.  And the more I talk to other couples who have succeeded in restoring their marriages, they echo these same truths. I recommend Yes, Your Marriage Can Be Saved as a book that will offer additional insights and put feet on some of the truths I address in Broken Heart on Hold as well.

The original Reconciling God's Way workbook was endorsed in 1997 by:

"The workbook has charming comments from both Joe and Michelle on each of the steps, that make each stage fun. In short, Reconciling God's Way is a well-thought-out strategy for Reconciliation."
Mike McManus, author of Marriage Savers, and nationally-known syndicated religious columnist.

"The workbook is practical and appropriately focuses on the person's relationship with God versus their spouse. Thank you to the Williams for providing a much needed resource in the area of marriage reconciliation."
Linda Osterlund, M.A., Marriage and Family therapist in Ventura.

"Reconciling God's Way is written from the platform of personal experience and practical ministry. If every church in America had this type of ministry, maybe we could turn the tide of divorce in our nation."
Pam Farrel, coauthor of Marriage in the Whirlwind, Love to Love, and Love, Honor, and Forgive.

"In 1996 we were court-mandated (during our separation) to attend Reconciling God's Way class, and in the beginning our times together were frustrating for us. We are now committed to God and to each other and to our family. By putting God first, our marriage was saved. We reconciled our differences through Christ."
Bob and Heather, one of the hundreds of couples who have reconciled - God's way.
