THE GOOD NEWS ABOUT MARRIAGE Debunking Discouraging Myths About Marriage and Divorce

Shaunti Feldhahn presents her work with the relaxed confidence of an experienced speaker. With perky pacing and true-believer enthusiasm, she's a wonderful ambassador for the values behind her Christian perspective on marriage. With concise references to published research, she and her coauthor make the point that couples are much more likely to stay together when they go to the same church, pray together, and explicitly give their lives over to the plan God has for them. Yet her language and tone sound secular and will be appreciated by a diverse population. She effectively makes the point that you can create a more satisfying marriage when you get past your day-to-day frustrations and believe in something bigger than yourself--your commitment to another person.
