Getting Ready for Marriage

Description

Everyone plans for a wedding. Few plan for a marriage.

A healthy marriage doesn't happen by accident. It grows from hundreds of everyday choices about things like how you spend money, handle conflict, and show up for each other when life gets hard.

In this real-life relationship roadmap, marriage experts Jim Burns and Doug Fields guide engaged and newly married couples through the conversations that matter most. This revised and updated edition, along with its accompanying workbook, is ideal for couples to read on their own, in a small group, or with a marriage mentor. You'll catch a shared vision for a thriving future as you learn how to:

• Communicate in ways that foster connection instead of frustration
• Develop a Christ-centered view of intimacy, sex, and commitment
• Build healthy boundaries with parents and in-laws
• Navigate disagreements as fellow travelers on the same journey
• Grow closer to God as you grow closer to each other

A beautiful wedding is just the beginning. The best gift is a marriage you'll be celebrating for years to come.
