Product Description
Did you know that the divorce rate among Mormons is now 40%, only 10% below the national average?

With a 40% chance of marriage failure, it is more important than ever to be selective when choosing a spouse. President Spencer W. Kimball once said, "In selecting a companion for life and for eternity, certainly the most careful planning, thinking, praying and fasting should be done to be sure that of all decisions, this one must not be wrong."

300 Questions Every LDS Couple Should Ask Before Getting Married will help you and your partner explore common goals and perspectives. The questions in this book will inspire couples to gain a deeper understanding of each other to build lasting and eternal relationships.

Some of the subjects covered include:

* Should your children pay for their own missions?
* What have you done financially to prepare for marriage?
* Do you expect intimacy often? Does your partner?

Couples should leave no question unasked when deciding on an eternal partner. Let 300 Questions Every LDS Couple Should Ask Before Marriage help you discover how to design a happy and everlasting marriage.

5.0 out of 5 stars Every christian couple should read before marriage, November 18, 2004

By	D.Peterson (Idaho) - See all my reviews

The author does a good job of selecting the best quotes by the general authorities on finding a suitable marriage companion. The questions are equal to other marriage books on the market, however, the author goes a step further by supplying spiritual questions that should be asked. Questions that dig deep into a person's believes, values and spirit are lacking in other books on the subject. Therefore, I would recommend this book for couples that want questions that have depth into the soul. As a Bishop I have counseled many single adults considering marriage. Now I have a great book to recommend to them. I look forward to her other books.

I got this as a bridal shower gift from a ward member. I am glad I did. It made me really think twice about my compatability with my now --exfiance. I highly recommend this book to any member considering getting married. I almost made a big mistake.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Choice if Engaged or Dating..., September 17, 2004

By	Jessica2000 - See all my reviews

Great book and about time! There are a few books on the market that have questions couples should ask while dating. However, this is the first book I have come across that is for Mormons. I am hoping to weed out all the frogs in the LDS dating pool with it...and finally find my prince!
