Uncover the secrets to a thriving marriage. Focusing on reconciling differences and forging true intimacy, Two Equals One emphasizes the crucial roles of communication, understanding, and concerted team effort.

100% of marriages that end in divorce are cited for "irreconcilable differences." Things that brought couples together are now tearing them apart. Simple occasional frustrations have morphed into everyday fights causing complex fractures. Marriages are miserable, families are affected, and the equation for a marriage made one is elusive.

In Two Equals One, Jimmy and Irene Rollins introduce you to a solution that is counter-cultural to a society that encourages you to give up, to not give your spouse any more chances, or use pain as permission to step out on your spouse. A solution that with two committed people coupled with the power of God can be the equation for a marriage made one. Two Equals One presents the case to stay rather than leave. To lean in rather than let go. To give you a framework and path to discover a marriage equation of love, laughter, and longevity.

From tackling tough topics such as addiction and resentment to addressing the impact of neglecting spousal roles, Two Equals One is a comprehensive guide to strengthening and salvaging relationships, while offering practical challenges, prayers, and resources to actively engage couples.

Jimmy and Irene will help readers to:

• Move from cussing and fussing to communicating and forgiving
• Learn tools to have hard conversations that will improve your communication and connection in relationships
• Find hope and healing in areas in your relationship where there is real hurt, broken trust, and rebuild your relationship together
• Discover how two completely different people can accept, learn from, and leverage their differences to make a marriage made one

Jimmy and Irene encourage couples to identify differences and navigate through them, providing guidance on conflict management and expectation setting. They stand firm in their belief that with effort and commitment, any marriage can overcome challenges and thrive. Your irreconcilable difference can be reconciled.

About the Author
Jimmy Rollins is the former lead pastor of i5 City Church just outside of Baltimore, Maryland. A revelatory preacher, visionary leader, and generous pastor, Jimmy's entire ministry is fueled by Jesus' command to serve the least of these. He and his wife, Irene, founded i5 City Church on that premise and mission, and together they have built an influential church known for local outreach and global impact. Jimmy also serves as an overseer for a variety of churches throughout the country, and in his position as a strategic partner of the Association of Related Churches (ARC), he has had many opportunities to teach countless churches and church leadership teams all over the world. Jimmy is also a champion for the marginalized in society, and through his work in the area of racial reconciliation, Jimmy has mediated many conversations promoting awareness, healing, and unity. On June 7, 2020, Pastor Jimmy led over 2,000 community members in a Walk for Justice, a peaceful demonstration promoting justice and racial equality. This event at the City Dock of Annapolis brought together people of all colors and faiths, as well as police officers and government officials, in an effort to speak out against racism in America. Jimmy and Irene have been married for more than twenty years, and, although they have walked through extremely difficult seasons, they can testify to God's transformative healing power in bringing them to a place of mutual health and joy. Together they lead a vibrant church and parent their three wonderful "almost-grown" children, Kayla, Jaden, and Maya. Irene Rollins is passionate about the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health of people. As a certified Emotional Intelligence coach, she guides others in becoming the best version of themselves through relatable coaching, teaching, and writing. Author of Reframe Your Shame, Irene's fervency to help others overcome their self-defeating habits comes from her own experiences as an overcomer of trauma and alcohol addiction. The tools Irene provides are practical because they come from actual experience. Together, Jimmy and Irene Rollins share their life with their three adult children: Kayla, Jaden, and Maya.
