Synopsis

Barbara Schlapp's helpful, promising guidebook should be read by every Catholic-Protestant couple! In spite of the ecumenical movement, Catholics and Protestants who marry face areas of potential conflict. Where will they worship? How do they approach the differences in their beliefs? What about their children's religions instruction? Whether you are already part of a "mixed marriage" or thinking about it, you will find this book a helpful guide. through interviews with couples involved in Catholic-Protestant marriages, and speaking from her own experience as a partner in a "mixed marriage," Barbara Schlappa offers practical steps for working through your differences. As in any good marriage, some effort is involved. But if you are willing to work at understanding each other's faith, you can resolve the dilemmas facing you and may find your marriage to be a source of Christian growth and unity. Parents of Catholic-Protestant couples, clergy and marriage counselors will also benefit from the helpful and hopeful book.
