Yes, the Bible can definitely help with prolonging marriages.
After all, I'm sure that every woman here agrees with Ephesians 5:22-33, don't they?
"Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord. . .. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything"
How could that possibly be controversial to a modern, liberated woman?

Chris, Chris... you really should, for the sake of fairness, include the following verses from which you quote:
"...25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her 26 to make her holy, cleansing[b] her by the washing with water through the word, 27 and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. 28 In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. 29 After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church— 30 for we are members of his body. 31 “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.”[c] 32 This is a profound mystery—but I am talking about Christ and the church. 33 However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband..."

//// But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. ////
No offence, but how would that help a marriage last??
Just because I like a bit of window shopping every now and again, doesn't mean I'm going to purchase the goods.
We're only human; no harm in looking in my opinion :)
