When doors slam and angry words fly, when things just aren't working out, and even when your spouse has destroyed your trust, there is still hope. If you feel like your marriage is near the breaking point, or even if you've already separated, Gary Chapman will show you how you can give your marriage one more try.

One More Try will help you . . .

  • Take the next step when blindsided in marriage;
  • Discover healthy ways to manage frustration and anger;
  • Effectively deal with loneliness;
  • Renew hope and trust in your spouse; and
  • Rebuild your marriage from the ground up.


Distress or even separation do not necessarily mean divorce is imminent. Matter of fact, it’s possible that these may even lead to a restored, enriched, growing marriage. The outcome of this challenging time is determined solely by the individuals involved. If you’re willing to make the most of that process, then begin the journey with confidence as Gary walks you step-by-step towards healing and hope.

*The content of this book has been significantly revised and updated from its previous title Hope for the Separated.*

This book was a really good read, giving good perspectives and things to think on. Love the biblical insight and scriptures to refer to.
Reviewed in the United States on July 11, 2016
I wanted to make amends to God for filing the annulment before I had fully allowed Him a chance to work in the marriage. Now, I'm satisfied I did all I could do. God knows this. This book guided me though the process, taught me to fight spiritually, and rely on God. I learned patience, forgiveness, and how to wait on God. My ex didn't come back, but that was a blessing. The miracle was him pocket dialing me and me hearing a conversation that clarified everything. I feel so free! I thought if I "failed" that I would die. I now realize that I didn't fail at all! I learned to took to God in probably the most difficult situation of my life. The book allowed me to stay with the process and really experience Him working though the situation. Not only did this process heal my heartache, what was revealed to me healed my heartache from the abuse that occurred during the marriage. I am grateful I tried. I learned so much, and now I can move ahead freely. Thanks to God!

Good advice and perspective. Better to read alongside a therapist that can navigate the emotions and actions. This book doesn’t go into fixing destructive behavior patterns but he does give a lot of book recommendations.

My wife are separated and she originally saw this book at B & N. I ordered us both copies to work through...
The reality with this book (or others like it), you TRULY have to be open and willing to consider the advice provided. For me, it was quite impactful, helpful - bringing forth issues (and changes) that I needed to acknowledge and make. Although it remains to be seen if/how it may positively impact my wife and lead to reconciliation.
That said, I would highly recommend it for anyone willing to not only take a serious look at themselves, but willing to make the changes brought forth by reading same.
One more thing...as other's have pointed out, it is written from a "Christian" perspective/viewpoint. However, you may be doing yourself (and your marriage) a disservice if you dismiss what may prove to be a valuable tool, based on that alone.
Best wishes to you in your journey...

No matter what season of life your marriage is in, this book is a great read. It's written in a way that the author is talking to you, and not at you. I highly recommend it.

Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2014
Another terrific book by Dr Gary Chapman. I loved his book the Five Love Languages, and this book One More Try is excellent. I was a bit surprised to hear him say that sometimes space is okay, as in separation. He clearly believe in marriage and that any marriage can be salvaged. He gives excellent tips for when tempers flare between couples. Sound advice and common sense based on Biblical principle throughout the entire short book. I think i like that as well, that the book was not too terribly long. I purchased the book during a difficult time in my own marriage, so the length was a plus for me as I read it in a night. I will refer to this on again and again. Even after 30 years of marriage, I still need help in understanding my spouse. I highly recommend this book for all couples. (as well as The Five Love Languages)

Reviewed in the United States on January 21, 2020
I limited my review to just three stars because the book is truly meant for a Christian audience and I know that might not sit well with some people. Small references to scripture become paragraphs as to why you should be a good spouse and reconcile because of God and not because you should give your spouse a chance due to the love you still have for them. Nobody is perfect and Chapman does his best to let his audience know that through self healing and with a strong support system as well as a thirst to be better that there is a chance to reconcile.

I still enjoyed the book and appreciate the messages as there was still a lot to learn and take from every chapter. Regardless of your background, taking a step back to look at your marriage from another perspective never hurts and beats the pain you might experience from not fixing it.

Reviewed in Canada on July 12, 2022
I’ve read several other books by this author.

I’m very pleased at the conversational tone of this books written style. It is very straightforward to read while also having meaty, practical content.

If marriage holds challenges that make married life confusing, this may provide some help as to next steps.

Worthwhile purchase!

The book started off great, but once u get into the crux of the book it took a turn to religion and reading verses from the bible will not help to save your marriage.

I am only giving one star as i cant give none.
