About Marriage is Worth the Fight
I wrote Marriage Is Worth the Fight for men like me—men who love their wives but sometimes feel stuck, discouraged, or unsure of how to move forward.
There was a time when my own marriage felt like it was slipping away. I thought the problem was her… until God helped me see that the real work needed to start in me. That realization began a journey of growth I didn’t expect, but one I’m thankful for.
This book is an invitation—to step up, to lead with love, and to walk with humility and strength that comes from God’s Word.
Inside, I share what helped me reconnect with my purpose as a husband. This isn’t about easy answers or quick fixes—it’s about real change. You’ll find:
Practical, biblical insights on leading and loving like Christ
Guidance for rebuilding trust when things feel uncertain
A look at true greatness in God’s eyes—and why it starts at home
Encouragement to grow personally, not just hope your marriage will change
Marriage Is Worth the Fight isn’t about having it all together. It’s about showing up, trusting God, and becoming the husband your marriage was meant to have.

Hi! I’m Josef, author of Marriage Is Worth the Fight. My passion is to encourage men to realize their identity in God, their value as His image-bearers, and their role in His created order. For the past 18 years, marriage to my wife, Nikki, and raising our three daughters has shaped much of what I’ve learned about God’s design for marriage.
I love theology, philosophy, and culture—and when I’m not writing, you’ll usually find me enjoying music, chess, grilling, or a strong cup of coffee. My desire is to help others live in such a way that we’ll hear, “Well done, good and faithful servant.”
