Review
"This story is a vivid portrayal of a marriage in crisis that is transformed by faith. One wouldn't expect a relationship-focused novel to be a suspenseful page-turner, but this one is! I'm delighted to recommend this fascinating novel." -Shaunti Feldhahn, best-selling author of For Women Only and For Men Only
"Love On Life Support is a tender and harrowing story of the gloriously layered and ruddy nature of marriage, faith, and life. This authentic, and at times uncomfortable glimpse into the deep divides within marriage, is a powerful reminder of our need to forgive and be forgiven, and to continually draw deeper in our surrender to Jesus, to better serve one another." -Michael and Gina Kell Spehn, NY Times Bestselling Authors of The Color of Rain
"Set against the backdrop of the eerie, early days of a worldwide pandemic, this story is a reminder that if we were to see our marriage from every angle, we'd see more clearly than ever our own contribution to its thriving or dying—and we might even take more responsibility for how we're growing up and showing up." -Kelly Flanagan, best-selling author of The Unhiding of Elijah Campbell
"Through the power of story, my friends, Bruce and Deb Potts, have beautifully communicated timeless truths about relationships that are sure to add tremendous value to your life and marriage." -Christopher Cook, podcast host of "Win Today with Christopher Cook"
"Love on Life Support...is encouraging for ALL couples who want to remember and rekindle what drew them together and aid in taking steps toward one another again. An engaging read and full of interesting real-life detail." -Karen G. Shive, MA, LPC, Marriage therapist and speaker
"This is an emotional love story that took me on an all too familiar journey of how relying on prayer, even in my work as a therapist, is a way to access every day miracles and the redemptive love of God." -Sheela E. Wright, Clinical Therapist and Marriage Mentor
"I have watched Bruce and Deb invest their lives in people and in their marriages, helping to build stronger foundations that can weather the storms that build over time and those hurricanes that crash upon us when least expected. Read on and find inspiration for your own marriage journey! -Steve Andrews, Co-Founder, Kensington Church
"With inspiring honesty and refreshing joy, Bruce and Deb share a story that goes to the heart of so many marriages. From the thrill of new relationship to the darkness of personal trial, there are crossroads at every season. And through it all, we are reminded of community, humility, and connection to the Love that helps us love others." -Chris Cook, Director of Care Initiatives, Kensington Church
"Brimming with wisdom - relational, spiritual, emotional. Throughout my work with struggling couples, the common denominator of all success stories is HOPE. Love on Life Support offers couples the hope of Jesus and provides a beautiful illustration that with God all things are possible - even the miraculous healing of a broken marriage." -Tammy Moore, Director of Marriage Initiatives, Kensington Church
"Grab your copy today for inspiration to love more, live life full out, and trust the amazing God who heals, renews and restores both bodies and marriages. Bravo! -Marnie Swedberg, Mentor to Millions
"Deb and Bruce Potts have written a beautiful story, a tale not rooted in the enchantment of fantasy, but a real-life marriage on the rocks. It is full of God's wisdom and sure to bring abundant hope and joy to every reader's marriage." -Jeff & Gina Petherick, Marriage Mentors

About the author
In over forty years of marriage, we've experienced both highs and lows, including some shocking and desperate situations. Through it all, our strong faith, marriage and community sustained us. We're in Act II (aka retirement) and we lead the Campus Marriage Team at our church. We love to support marriages in crisis through marriage mentoring. And we nurture a space where marriages can thrive through Date Nights and Small Groups.
Whether you're in a good marriage and want to make it great, or if you're wondering how much longer you can go on, we're here for you. Our books, resources, and blog posts will point you to the help you're looking for. Be sure to sign up for our free gifts to you on our website, marriagementoring.info.
We're super excited to be launching our first novel, Love on Life Support. It's based on our true story of Bruce's 30 day stay in an ICU during the first surge of Covid. After his miraculous recovery, we felt God's call to use this disaster in a second chance romance about a couple whose relationship is in crisis. We hope you find the story captivating and encouraging.

I was somewhat familiar with Bruce's medical challenges, but frankly, I did not appreciate the severity of those medical issues or the huge pressures Deb faced being alone as the pandemic grew. This book did a terrific job of capturing the true story, emotions included (I left a few tears on my copy!).
I've also known Deb and Bruce's strong spiritual connections and better understand the role those convictions played during this traumatic episode.
I applaud Deb's and Bruce's efforts to capture this critical period in their lives - well done my friends.
