Preparing for Marriage

About the Book

Marriage is one of the most important institutions and one of the oldest in our society. We are in no doubt about the blessedness of a happy marriage. However, the traditional concept of waiting till marital problems develop before intervention needs an overhaul. We need a paradigm shift. The authors strongly believe that a solid education and thoughtful consideration of the important matters of marriage beforehand will not only avert many of the calamities that marriage counsellors often have to battle with but will also better inform vision and expectation in marriage. This book looks at preparation for marriage well before it is time to say “I do.”
