Harry Reeder, Senior Pastor, Briarwood Presbyterian Church, Birmingham, Alabama Tweet The little things we gloss over at the start of a relationship can grow into thorny vines which can strangle a marriage and bury it in toxic fruit. Lou Priolo draws on his wide counseling experience to help couples at any stage of marriage to identify—and then start rooting out - the most common and insidious faults that may overwhelm them in time. Danger Signs is a thoughtful, searching tool for improving your most important earthly union—your marriage—and likely, your own walk with Christ.
