PRACTICAL resource for ministry!,
By J Hite (Marion, Indiana) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Marriage Ministry in the 21st Century: The Encyclopedia of Practical Ideas (Paperback)
Our church wants to minister to Moms and Dads as we minister to their children. We didn't know where to start--this book was the answer. There are 165 creative, easy, fun, interactive ideas in this book for ways to minister to couples--the parents of the kids in your church. There are also a few chapters on marriage ministry that have been helpful for us as we have started addressing the whole "family ministry" idea that is all the buzz these days. This book is a must have for churches and ministries that care not only about kids--but the homes they live in and parents they live with!

Even for counselors,

This review is from: Marriage Ministry in the 21st Century: The Encyclopedia of Practical Ideas (Paperback)
This was a gift for a friend who is going into Christian Counseling, and even though this may not be marketed as such, it seems that it would be a plus for the Christian counselor. There are suggestions on nights together and getaways. For a little more spiritual depth, suggestions are given for "Spiritual Retreat Ideas." Also there are chapters on strengthening marriages and families and a section on couples' bible studies. Specifically for the counselor are sections on "Ideas for Starting Marriages Right" (could be used in premarital counseling), helping marriages through "rocky times," and ministering to those going through a divorce; and section twelve is entitled "Marriage Counseling."

Helpful for all Marriages, including Remarriages,
By Barbara Sheldon, M.S.W. (Solana Beach, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Marriage Ministry in the 21st Century: The Encyclopedia of Practical Ideas (Paperback)
This book was compiled by editors at Group Publishing, drawn from material written by Les and Leslie Parrot, David and Lisa Frisbie, and Doyle Roth. Each of the primary contributors furnishes a chapter; other sections of the book are drawn from input, ideas and suggestions that the authors furnished. Very helpful for premarriage counseling (Les and Leslie Parrot) and also highly useful in preparing for remarriage (David and Lisa Frisbie). Each of these couples are acknowledged experts in their respective fields. Each of these couples has written numerous books in their subject areas. Doyle Roth furnishes excellent material related to marriage counseling. I am not familiar with Roth's background or other writing, but his work here is well-organized and well-written. This volume is a "handbook" or "guidebook" that deserves a place on the shelves of every counselor, rabbi, minister or pastor who works with married couples and/or remarried couples and blended families. Barbara Sheldon, M.S.W. I also recommend: Happily Remarried: Making Decisions Together * Blending Families Successfully * Building a Love That Will Last
