 Only for evangelicals/fundamentalists January 6, 2009
Wow, this book is so religious! I was raised in the Christian tradition, but I was a little put off by the focus, especially the section that said women are supposed to be homemakers and submit to their husbands! I also felt it was designed for more naive, younger readers who haven't quite figured themselves out. I'm an independent woman in my 30s who is earning my PhD. If that fits you at all, this book isn't for you. I gave it three stars because I don't feel it's fair for someone who is primarily Spiritualist to rate a Christian book very negatively. Don't buy this book if you are not extremely religious.
 Fantastic August 16, 2008
Great Book!!!!!! My husband and I read through this when we started to consider marriage and absolutely loved it. We really enjoyed the interaction and activity oriented tasks as we were challenged to dig deeper and to prepare for marriage! Wonderful for couples that haven't been married before, opens the lines of communication as well as shedding light any assumptions each may be carrying about marriage. Great Christian book with a God honoring but realistic message. -mrs. hodawanus (:
A Great Conversation Starter..... March 25, 2008

My husband and I used this book as part of an 8 week Premarital Counseling course. We both found the book to bring up good topics for discussion though most of them we had discussed before. I would not describe myself as a very religious person but more of a spiritual person with strong Christian beliefs. That said, I found some "opinions" in the book to be narrow minded and that some of the bible passages were taken out of context. I do think that it was a good tool as part of our sessions but don't depend completely on this book for your premarital counseling. We also looked at The 5 Love Languages and Dave Ramsey's book Financial Peace Revisited. Those books as well as the insight from our counselors made all the difference.
 Very helpful book for marriage prep November 19, 2007

While there are areas that really don't apply if you are middle-aged and getting married, we just skimmed those. The rest is very well thought out and creates a real atmosphere of learning about one another (that is, as long as you are truthful with your answers).
I would recommend this book to anyone seeking to prepare for marriage and to know if they really are sure. Obviously, it must be taken seriously to really help at all.
