By Dan Dooley and Dan Dooley

For the soon to be married couple, or the newly married couple. Biblical advice for your marriage.

Married life comes with great pleasure, but also the potential for great strife. Those areas of the not so pleasant are addressed in practical terms. The author cannot answer every single situation with a ready answer. But, the guidelines provided, if the couple will allow God to lead in their marriage, they will find the going much smoother.

Topics covered among others: What Marriage is all about. God designed marriage to satisfy needs. Leaving and Cleaving. Compatibility. Roles. What is a home? Finances and Budgeting. Intimacy, the sexual part of marriage. Children born/brought into the marriage. The extended family. Careers/his job/her job. Handling disagreements and arguments. This is just a partial list of the topics covered. The topics are addressed from not only a biblical perspective, but from real life experiences of their own, but the experience and understanding gained from the counseling of numerous couples, both pre/newlyweds as well as longer term marriages undergoing struggles within those marriages.

The author offers the experience coming from close to one hundred combined years of marriage. His and his now wife Patsy, with both of their previous marriages and now their own.

Both widowed, and now having found each other, they have learned much over their two lives both together and with their late spouses.

The author offers practical advice for the new to be married for the first time, as well as for those about to be married, not for the first time. Blending families, addressing financial plans, trust, marital intimacy, and a host of other topics the soon to be married should consider before they join hands at the altar.

Pastors and others who will officiate weddings will find a wealth of material for advising soon to be married couples in pre-marital counseling.

And it's all from a biblical perspective. Putting God first in the marriage goes a long way toward assuring a successful and happy marriage.
