The Strong Ones Stay
In a world that does not value the sanctity of marriage and encourages quick exits when things get tough, giving up on a difficult marriage can seem easy. But what would happen if you contended for your marriage, engaged in spiritual warfare for your spouse, and weathered the storms, firmly believing that God can still change things around?

Others pursue the lines of enquiry opened up by Latin American theories of economic ‘dependency’ and by the new school of French economic anthropology.
