The 1249 Club

Russ has personally experienced the destructive cycle of marriage, divorce, and remarriage in his and his family's lives, multiple times. Unfortunately, in the Western world today, the common statistics of marriage failures are one out of two first marriages fail, two out of three second marriages fail, and four out of five third and on marriages fail. Russ has now written The 1249 Club for (1) those who are married and want to be married, (2) those who are married and do not want to be married, and (3) those who are not married and want to be married.

The 1249 Club aims to scripturally help many to (1) avoid marriage for the wrong reasons, (2) strengthen existing marriages, (3) save troubled marriages, (4) spark forgiveness and reconciliation between separated or divorced couples, (5) save families where possible, and (6) lower the divorce rate to 1 out of 1,250. Another way of saying it is The 1249 Club teaches married couples, divorced couples, and singles the subtle causes, devastating consequences, and achievable cures of breaking the marriage covenant.

The cause of divorce is selfish, sinful, and unloving behavior and the cure of divorce is selfless, sinless, and loving behavior. When divorce occurs, the hurtful consequences are life altering and unending for generations. The consequences can be avoided when divorce never occurs but results in confession, repentance, forgiveness, and reconciliation. The 1249 Club teaches these biblical principles and how to apply them. They are simple but make no mistake, not easy, yet with God "all things are possible."

Get the book and (1) listen to the teachings, (2) hear the teachings in your spirit, (3) understand the teachings, and (4) apply the teachings to your lives. That and God will make a difference in your marriage journey.
