Customer reviews:
“We did this book as part of our joint devotions… And a “follow up” to the premarital counseling workbook of Mack’s we used before getting married. We’d read as few points/do as many questions as we wanted to each day, which allowed us to have great discussions on topics of oneness through communication, sexual intimacy, financial decisions and child raising. We loved how much scripture was in it and practical advice… Was as valuable as reading Preparing for Marriage God’s Way before marrying has been to us!” — Erin
“We used this book for our premarital counseling sessions and it was great. The book is written in outline form so it’s easy to pick up/put down. It has a lot of real life scenarios that we found helpful and pointed out things in our relationship that we didn’t realize that we needed to work out, such as ties to our family of origin and the way we treat each other on a daily basis. Great for premarital counseling or if you are already married. We skipped the parenting and financial section (we had just taken the Dave Ramsey class). I would recommend.” — Ashleigh

Letters to a Romantic – First Years of Marriage
$10.75“This book for newlyweds is needed and tremendously helpful. It contains timely challenges and encouragements as well as relevant instructions for people at every stage of marriage, though its material is especially relevant for newlyweds.
Having been in ministry and having had the privilege of performing the premarital counseling as well as the weddings of numerous people over the past sixty-two years, I wish that this book had been available to give to all these couples as they began their marriages. Marriages that begin right are much more likely to continue right. And I highly recommend this book as a vital part of that good beginning.”

Marriage: 6 Gospel Commitments Every Couple Needs to Make (Paul David Tripp)
$23.99Marriage, according to Scripture, will always involve two flawed people living with each other in a fallen world. Yet, in pastor Paul Tripp’s professional experience, the majority of couples enter marriage with unrealistic expectations, leaving them unprepared for the day-to-day realities of married life.
This unique book introduces a biblical and practical approach to those realities that is rooted in God’s faithfulness and Scripture’s teaching on sin and grace. “Spouses need to be reconciled to each other and to God on a daily basis,” Tripp declares. “Since we’re always sinners married to sinners, reconciliation isn’t just the right response in moments of failure. It must be the lifestyle of any healthy marriage.”

Building a Godly Home, Vol 2: A Holy Vision for a Happy Marriage (William Gouge)
$13.00For years, William Gouge’s Domestical Duties has stood as the foremost Puritan treatment of Christian family life. Yet due to its size and antiquated expression, it has become almost unknown among current generations of believers. To help revive the usefulness of this classic book, Scott Brown and Joel R. Beeke have divided Gouge’s work into three manageable volumes, updated the language to modern standards, and have given them the title Building a Godly Home.
In this second volume, A Holy Vision for a Happy Marriage, we find detailed counsel about the most important relationship in the family—husband and wife. Gouge carefully addresses what a fit marriage is and the proper way to enter into one. He then discusses the mutual duties married couples share in order for marriage to survive and thrive, as well as the duties specific to men and women respectively.
Not only does he give detailed treatment of how these responsibilities are best expressed and too often hindered, but he also provides ample biblical motivation to set us on the right course. Christian husbands and wives will find much encouragement in this book.
