Customer comments on this selection.
Thought this was a Christian study... A couple of the chapters in this workbook are worth while to do with your significant other--they give you a chance to talk about things that will affect your marriage eventually and help you and yours discuss these things and work them out before they can become a problem. But I don't recall any discussion about God, the Bible, or even any Bible verses being used to get there point across. Basically, this book says, "Enjoy the time you have together now because when you get married, it's all downhill from there and it's going to take a lot of work with no benefits to keep it going." That's truly the impression I got from reading the book and doing the workbook. In all fairness, I did quite reading the book and doing the study before I got to the end but only because I couldn't take anymore of their "reality-check." Truth is, you can have a wonderful marriage, that stays lively and full of love throughout your entire life. Bogus book/workbook. Stay away.
GREAT idea for engaged couples I would highly recommend this book to any couple who is considering marriage, engaged, or recently married--or even couples who have been married for years. The practical advice is effective and Drs.Parrot illuminate issues that are vitally important to consider when building or fortifying a marriage yet that are often overlooked in favor of wedding preparation. Very helpful, honest and eye-opening.
Learning about each other You will definitely need the actual book to use the workbooks. My fiance and I have been working through the lessons and are about halfway through the workbooks. The best thing about the exercises is that there are so many things about my future wife that I didn't know, especially in regards to how she thinks and feels about certain aspects of life. We are becoming closer as we're beginning to understand each other at a deeper level. I'm learning more about how women communicate and how they really aren't able to come to grips with exactly how we operate either. The exercises vary from childhood influences to budgeting to love languages. We look forward to each time we work through the lessons. I highly recommend them for any couple preparing for marriage.
