Weathering Together

Discover the keys to growing a happily-ever-after marriage, in spite of struggles and loss, by leaning into God and one another—from husband-and-wife actors Kellan and Brittany Lutz.

Regardless of the struggles you’re facing in your marriage, through communication and a commitment to one another, you and your partner can build something new in whatever season of life you’re experiencing. Weathering Together shares the poignant and deeply moving lessons from Kellan and Brittany Lutz, who—like so many couples—met, fell in love, and embarked on what they thought would be a happily ever after.

They knew there would be struggles, but the reality was far more challenging than they had imagined. Their happiness was shattered when they lost their first child after a textbook pregnancy. This unimaginable loss threw them into the darkest valley they had ever faced, revealing the distance they needed to close to truly find each other again. Each new season of life brought opportunities to lean into their faith and rebuild their marriage. These life-changing events transformed them, and they realized that their relationships must evolve as they do.

Weathering Together is not just about hard times and challenges; it also celebrates wins, funny moments, and raw, vulnerable experiences that make up a marriage. In their decade together, they have navigated living with someone for the first time, marriage after coming from a household of divorce, multiple cross-country moves, job losses, sick parents, fertility struggles, and the profound grief of losing a child.

This book shares the wisdom gained from these lessons and the loved ones lost, offering hope and inspiration for couples to grow closer to each other and to God as they navigate life's inevitable changes. Whether you see it as ground zero or the first page of a brand-new story, Weathering Together is a testament to building a life with the person you said "I do" to, and looking back on the life you built together.
