Wonderful Little Book for Marriages

This innovative, personal, and often humorous book looks at marriage, love, friendship and God. Steinmetz examines marriage through what he terms as its necessary 5 stages: Dreamworld, Time of Disillusion, Time of Misery, Time of Awakening, and Time of Love.Each stage, he argues, must be passed through. If love and friendship remain, couples can then have a lasting, deep marriage.As a marriage counselor, Steinmetz reminds couples that the best way to be happy is to take care of each other, to uncomplicate our lives, and to practice Christ's simple, timeless message of unselfish love, daily.
