Let me interject here.

Jim's practices are consistent with DBing. In fact, I learned of Jim Conway through the DB board. In addition, other groups such as Covenant Keepers and Rejoice Ministries are also consistent with these practices.

Jim's methods add the spiritual element to the DB priciples.

Where I look at DBing as 'technique,' Jim adds faith to technique. It's a very powerful combination. You are advised as to what to do, then given the strength, through faith, to trust the process and 'be still.'
As Tom Petty said, "The waiting is the hardest part." Faith is what gives us the courage to persevere.

With regard to what BND said, this is not an exact science. You cannot necessarily add A + B and get C. Your spouse may not come back. HOWEVER, by applying these methods you present yourself with the best chance of that happening, plus you become a better person in the meantime. It is important to realize that every situation is different. As each individual is different, so is each MLC and each relationship. Use other peoples' experience as guidance, but do not assume, either positively or negatively, that your situation will turn out the same.
