How prepared were you for marriage when you tied the knot and said, "I do"? How ready were you to live up to the demands of Ephesians 5, verses 20 to 22? "Out of reverence for Christ to be supportive of each other in love". Many of us weren't. We thought we knew it all and that love would carry us through, and for many it has, but how much easier life would have been with a secure foundation to our marriage. That's why we've produced this. Starting Out really is unlike any other book on marriage preparation. It's both a manual and a workbook, and whilst its purpose is to teach, each section also contains a number of challenging questions to make the couple articulate their individual thinking and beliefs and to provoke open discussion between them. Written by the team behind Sozo for Couples, each chapter of Starting Out also includes questions for the couple to ask of Father God, the answers to which should determine the framework for their ongoing relationship and marriage. Starting Out can be used by the couple working alone, or, better still, worked through together with a marriage preparation facilitator...contact the author for details.
