Format:Paperback
Bill and Lynn Hybels have taken their true life experiences and incorporated them into a guide that all married couples should have. It points out inconsistencies and areas of potential trouble, helping to avoid cataclysmic confrontations and future divorce. At the same time they show how to maintain and enhance the relationship between husband and wife making marriage a joy and a blessing instead of a heavy burden. For many people this book could save thier marriage. Being Christ centered yet very practical it is a must for young christian men and women yet it is also written within easy understanding of those who have not yet found Christ. I recommend it as excellent reading to all. It will change the way you see the one you "Love".

This book evokes a stern sense of cataclysmic reality in dealing with two opposites attracting. Be careful, just because your attracted sexually doesn't mean it will last. Bill and his wife give a typical, but volatile picture of their own dating experiences. While dating, I read this book with my girl friend of over 2 years, I started to realize that problems might arise later in our relationship, and they did. This book will help you cut the perverbial attachments that could ruin your life forever. Read this book, keep it for a reference guide, give it to dating couples who are serious.

Interesting
This item was delivered as promised, on time and as new. I have only had time to read through the introduction and forward, but it seems to be very deep and wide ranging.

Found it quite boring and could not get past the first 2 pages no matter how hard I tried. .

Only for the dedicated Christian
The Hybels have some sound practical advice to offer, but undermine the power of their message by putting down Christians who are 'less' than pastors or missionaries. Read more
