I brought this book for my married brother and his wife. I was hoping it would help them but they are divorcing... So I'm reading it and I love it. I would suggest if you are getting married to read it.
My newlywed Sunday school class is using this book to teach with as a series. I really enjoy the lessons that it teaches. I think the book has a ton of wisdom in it.
