Reviewed by Tammy Petty Conrad for Reader Views (5/08) I enjoyed this book from the lighthearted beginning to the serious ending. The author's relaxed style made me feel as if we were chatting over coffee. His style of handling complicated, emotional concepts with simple and straight-forward language helped me see things in a much clearer way than I ever have before. And I was married twenty-two years! The book is based on the author's seminar on improving marriage. A funny look at a serious subject, it has proven to be helpful to many, many couples, partially because he addresses topics from both the male and female perspectives. "We get "much revenue" from being joined to another person..." but as he goes on to say, "There is no such thing as a poo-free marriage." Well maybe this language is a bit too direct, but it does sum up the fact that as beneficial and wonderful as marriage can be, there are always problems to deal with. There is so much wisdom in this book that I finally got the highlighter out and started marking page after page. I know I will reread sections from time to time just to refresh my memory. And of course there's lots of laughter to be found throughout the pages. One example stands out: "You were smoking marital ganja if you expected marriage to be a life filled with constant waves of joy, where every morning birds sing you awake and little bunnies help you sweep the floors as the chipmunks wash the dishes." Amen. As a pastor who has counseled many, Mark Gungor uses the Bible as his reference. "The Bible never tells us to find the one God has chosen. It teaches us how to live well with the person we have chosen." A man of strong opinions, some might not agree with everything he has to say. Young couples might doubt some of his wisdom. I on the other hand, a seasoned woman who has been through one marriage, see the wisdom of his words loud and clear. Even though I'm not currently married, I can see the value of the information for my current relationship and will encourage my companion to read the book so we can discuss and implement some of the methods. No matter one's age or experiences, there are loads of valuable ideas to take from the reading.

Should be required reading for all couples!

I preordered this book directly from "Laugh Your Way America," and have been reading it for the past few days. I was married for nearly 22 years, and was widowed last year. I'm in a new relationship now, and this book looked like a good resource for getting a better understanding of what it takes to be a successful, happy couple (it doesn't always happen naturally). This book is insightful, witty, and really does explain some of the basic differences between men and women. If you want a better understanding of the opposite sex and how those differences can affect relationships, this is THE book for you! Thank you, Mr. Gungor!
