What if your marriage was a movie… what story would it tell?
Would it be a romance filled with laughter, connection, and unforgettable moments? A drama weighed down by conflict and miscommunication? A comedy of unexpected plot twists and learning curves? Or perhaps a story still searching for its direction?
Lights. Camera. Marriage. is a practical and engaging workbook designed to help couples strengthen communication, deepen intimacy, resolve conflict, and build a relationship worth watching.
Using the powerful analogy of filmmaking, Raliegh and Rita Jones take couples behind the scenes of marriage to examine:
The “directors” influencing your relationship
The roles and expectations each spouse brings into the story
Communication breakdowns and emotional disconnects
Financial pressure, conflict, romance, and forgiveness
The plot twists every marriage eventually faces
How to create a lasting love story rooted in faith and intentionality
This interactive workbook includes:
Real-life conversation starters
Communication exercises
Role play activities
Reflection questions
Biblical principles with practical application
Tools for couples, small groups, and marriage ministries

Married couples
Engaged couples
Marriage small groups
Church workshops
Premarital counseling
Couples retreats
Whether your relationship feels like a romantic classic, an action-packed adventure, or a film in need of a rewrite, this workbook will help you reconnect, refocus, and rediscover the purpose behind your partnership.
Because every marriage tells a story.
The question is: what will yours say?
Every year, communities gather. Prayers are offered. Speeches are made. Tears are shed.
And then the same things keep happening.
This workbook was born in the frustration of those meetings. Written by a pastor, community leader, and East St. Louis native who knows the street code from the inside, Beef, Bullies, and Bullets is not another lecture from someone who doesn't know your world. It is a practical, honest, research-backed tool for the teen who is trying to navigate real danger, real pressure, and a real future, all at the same time.
Across 12 chapters, teens will learn:
How conflicts start and how to stop them before they become irreversible
Why the armor you wear to survive the block can trap you in it
The neuroscience behind the three-second decision that changes everything
How bullying actually works, including the forms that leave no bruises
How violence escalates from a group chat to a shooting, step by step
How to get out of dangerous situations alive
How to process trauma and grief without letting it destroy your future
How regular people have reduced violence in their neighborhoods by 50 to 70 percent
Every chapter includes real documented stories, guided activities, role-play scenarios, an Impossible Choice wildcard that forces genuine ethical thinking, and a Parent Talk section designed to open conversations at home that might otherwise never happen.
Used in schools, churches, youth programs, juvenile diversion, and community organizations.
This workbook aligns with Social-Emotional Learning standards and is supported by citations from peer-reviewed research including the University of Chicago Crime Lab's Becoming a Man study, Cure Violence program data, Advance Peace outcomes, and Safe Streets Baltimore documentation.
Your neighborhood doesn't have to stay the way it is. But it starts with you.
