Marriage is one of the most important commitments into which you will ever enter. If you and your fiancé are Christ-followers, it makes sense to know what God's design for marriage looks like and to create a relationship that honors Him.

Authors Jerry McColgin and Lou Rodriguez have worked with hundreds of couples both through pre-marital counseling and post-marital support. They've incorporated wisdom gained from these couples' struggles as well as joy in their triumphs. Jerry and Lou also impart lessons from each of their thirty-plus years of marriage.
