    About this audiobook

    Marriage is hard work. Two independent lives are merging. Two different mindsets are colliding. Two different people are learning. But marriage can also be one of life's greatest gifts--just take it from David and Tamela Mann.

    The Manns have delighted and inspired audiences through music, a string of plays and movies, and several television series, including Meet the Browns, The Manns, and Mann & Wife, and after 30+ years of marriage, the Manns are more in love than ever. Now, they're finally ready to share how they've been able to keep that spark burning all these years.

    Join David and Tamela as they share the day-to-day challenges, successes, and joys that happen behind the scenes, teaching you how to:

    • Put forgiveness, laughter, intimacy, and faith at the center of your relationship
    • Embrace hope, no matter what obstacles you're facing
    • Find the blessings in your own story

    Praise for Us Against the World:

    "When I think about David and Tam and the love they share, all the horrible things I've heard about marriage are chipped away--and in their place, slivers of light and hope shine through. Their type of love, guided by honor and respect, is what can heal couples. David and Tamela are here to offer their love and wisdom in Us Against the World. Their experience, understanding, faith, and love are invaluable. Take heart."

    --Tyler Perry, award-winning actor, director, and producer

      This book is amazing. I recommend it for every engaged and married couple no matter what season of life you're in. They are so open and transparent about the ups and downs and the importance of God, laughter, and love in their marriage.

    • 5/5
      Both David and Tamela did a fantastic job with the narration. ??. So many lessons learned as a single woman in waiting. You’ll transparency, humor and your “real ness” certainly allowed me to listen the whole book. I love…..how you love it other…..how you prayed at the end of the chapters…the practical advice given and the most important is how you love the Lord. May you both and your family continues to enjoy the favors of our Father as you remain humble in your ministry in church or in the creative arts industry. God bless!!! From Alicia from Trinidad ??

      This book was practical and easy listening. It offers tips for marriage. Loved the transparency of the Mann’s. A must read for marriage and those seeking marriage.
    • 5/5
      This has been an enlightening journey listening to thus book. This has also confirmed what I believe God has been trying to show me most of my life. Now that I am older and more mature. I get it now. I understand now when the Holy Spirit showed me that there are several relationships in a marriage. And all of them must be cultivated and nurtured.
      Thank Mr. And Mrs. Mann for sharing your story. ?
