The question came up in the wives forum recently of what resources are available to support men in their role as christian husbands, once some recovery has begun.  Here are a few I found, including marriage in general, and wives also.  Sometimes great resources are mentioned within posts in other forums and are difficult for new members to ferret out, or older ones to find again.  Feel free to add those godly marriage/husband/wife resources that have been of benefit in your own life.
The first is by Dr. Dobson...

The next, though written by a woman, I have heard great things about, and has a companion book for women.

I suggest searching christianbook.com for Captivating, and Wild At Heart, By John and Stasi Eldridge, since, no matter what I do, the editor will not make its url a link. 

I have also heard good things about Gary Chapman's The Five Love Languages series.  That includes titles for marriage as well as parenting.  I probably based a great deal of my parenting on Dr. Dobson's books, and feel that I have found his principles helpful.
The rest of these books are ones with which I am not familiar, but might give you a starting point for what's out there.

My wife has enjoyed The Excellent Wife by Martha Peace and I have read The Exemplary Husband by Stuart Scott. I'm sure we found them at CBD.
