Great Help For Couples Planning to Marry

This is a short book; I wished for a few more chapters. But this little volume packs a lot into its pages. Topics range from theology to very practical things. I especially enjoyed the chapters on building intimacy (Jim Pettitt) and the seven commitments of a marriage (David and Lisa Frisbie). Those chapters alone are worth the price of this book --- but every chapter is useful, helpful, well-written. Great book for pastors and marriage counselors --- excellent reading for couples planning to marry. Five stars! Barbara Sheldon, M.S.W. I also highly recommend: Happily Remarried: Making Decisions Together * Blending Families Successfully * Building a Love That Will Last
