This book is a great tool for Christian couples. My fiance and I have been going through it together in the months leading up to our marriage. It has started some very thought-provoking discussions as well as provided biblically sound advice. I whole heartedly recommend it to any engaged couple.

The book is targeted toward Christians, but would be a good exercise for anyone getting married. The book facilitates discussions about a wide variety of issues from what you want to do when you have a days off, what kind of relationship you want with your children, to how you want your wedding to look and why.
I think this book would be helpful for a lot of people and certainly helped me and helped relieve any reservations about the coming marriage.
