He identifies different types of self-centered spouses to show us what we are dealing with, shares strategies for interacting with them, and points to evidences of genuine change to bring hope to anyone living with a chronically self-centered spouse.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Brad Hambrick is a biblical counselor who gets it.
