This book offers an entirely new model for marriage. Most couples live in the "default model" of marriage characterized by busyness, lack of connection, and a settling for good enough. By deciding to intentionally create the marriage they envision by giving attention to seven practices, couples can discover the extraordinary potential for marriage to be more intimate and soulful than they ever imagined it could be.

This review is from: The 7 Spiritual Practices of Marriage: Your Guide to Creating a Deep And Lasting Love (Paperback)
My husband and I have read many books on marriage during our 30 years together. We learned a little bit from each one, but none of them really worked for us until this one. If you want to have an extraordinary marriage, this is the book to read. It doesn't give rules and standards with a view to "the husband should" or "the wife should..." That seemed to be the formula for all the other marriage books we read, and it just didn't work for us. This book explores how two very individual people can come together in an extraordinary relationship. It provides the broad outline and it's up to each couple to fill in the details however they work for them. It's filled with spiritual principles (without being too preachy), interesting quotes and fun, revealing exercises. The best part was all the things this book gave us to talk about.
