Reader Reviews
This book is an excellent resource for several reasons. I'll list just a few that were helpful for us: 1) It discusses numerous common areas of unmet expectations. 2) It helps you compare your interests on a wide variety of things that you wouldn't normally think about. 3) It helps you compare your priorities and commitment level on things like work, hobbies, family life, raising children, how you spend your time, spiritual beliefs and convictions, etc. 4) It has advice on how to handle practical things like in-laws, sexual differences, finances, etc. The book is from a Christian perspective, and as such there are TONS of Bible verses listed on each subject. You could look them all up or just a few to answer the questions. Even though my wife and I were pretty ready for marriage, this book asked some tough questions that helped us realize there was lots more to learn. Practically speaking, you will need a few things for this book: a good chunk of time - like 2-3 hours per chapter, but it will be well worth it, and you and your potential spouse will both need a copy of the book to write in. This book will perhaps save you years of pain by going through it and discussing it together. It may even reveal that you really shouldn't get married. That's hard but it will save you from a lifetime of painful memories. I also recommend the book to married couples. It's a good way to start fresh from a biblical foundation.
