Synopsis

Why did we write this book? We are just ordinary people passionate about sharing the knowledge and emphasizing the importance of God and Christ as the foundation of every successful relationship. However, this is not a theological book, but an application book, designed to strengthen relationships and introduce couples to God s word. This book gives busy couples a chance to talk about what is important in their lives and grow together. It can be done anywhere, anytime. We suggest doing one chapter at a time, recording your responses and letting the ideas you discuss change you.

Review

I have read many a devotional book for Christian couples but this one truly caught my eye and kept my attention. In this work our authors address many issues that married couples must face. They encourage them to talk about these issues and explain to the reader that this does not have to be done at length, or all at one time, but is encouraged to be done in short sessions. This is a plus for many with the busy schedules and demands of their time that are upon them. They speak of such topics as Friendship, Praying Together, Give Without Expecting Back, and Support, just to name a few. There is a short discussion on the subject followed by a section where questions are asked so you may put down your own feelings and ideas on what you have read and discussed. There is also a Scripture to study that enhances what has been read. The object of this book is to help couples learn to work and grow together in a closer relationship that will bless both them and their family. It is not what I call a 'heavy' book, bogged down with countless do this and do that instructions, but it is like a refreshing drink to a parched and dry spirit. It is a beautiful book, very well done, simple, yet extremely insightful, full of the Word and wisdom of God. Recommended for all couples. --Shirley Priscilla Johnson-Author/Reviewer
