{ "item_title" : "Separated by Borders", "item_author" : [" Jason Beck "], "item_description" : "Love can cross a border in a conversation. Building a life together is another matter.For couples from different countries, the dream is often simple: get married, share a home, and be present for the ordinary moments of life. Yet the path to that future can involve complicated applications, financial pressure, uncertain timelines, and long periods of separation.Separated by Borders asks an important question: How can nations protect their borders without needlessly keeping genuine couples apart?Writing from his experience in an international long-distance relationship and the perspective of his Christian faith, Jason Beck presents a personal argument for a more humane approach to marriage and family reunification. He recognizes the legitimate need to verify relationships while questioning whether prolonged, unexplained separation should be accepted as an unavoidable part of the process.Inside, readers will explore: - The emotional and financial cost of international separation- The ordinary experiences couples miss while living apart- Why marriage recognition and immigration permission are different issues- The need for honest evidence, accountability, and reasonable verification- How faith can sustain couples through uncertainty- Principles for clearer procedures, fairer decisions, and more humane timelines- Ways families, churches, and communities can support separated couplesThis is not a legal manual, an argument for open borders, or a promise that marriage should automatically guarantee residency. It is a short, faith-informed nonfiction book asking whether legitimate security concerns and compassion for families can exist together.Written for international couples, their families, faith communities, and readers concerned about marriage and migration, Separated by Borders gives voice to a deeply human desire: to stop building a relationship entirely through messages and video calls and finally begin sharing everyday life.Marriage should not become an immigration loophole. Neither should immigration law become a wall inside a lawful marriage.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers1.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/9/79/817/125/9798171251024_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "10.99", "online_price" : "10.99", "our_price" : "10.99", "club_price" : "10.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
