Review "Gods wonderful gift of marriage is struggling mightily in todays world. Christian couples have great opportunities and responsibilities to glorify God as husbands and wives before a watching world. Pastors ought to take advantage of the opportunity to help these couples prepare for this solemn commitment. Wayne Macks outstanding manual helps couples get to the core issues of marriage. For more than fifteen years, I have had couples work through the lessons of this book individually and then together. Afterward we spend delightful time reflecting together on their findings. Week by week these men and women become transformed by Gods Word to honor the Lord in their new callings as husbands and wives."--John Crotts, pastor and author of Mighty Men: The Starters Guide to Leading your Family and Tying the Knot Tighter, co-authored with Martha Peace"Preparing for Marriage Gods Way is the most biblical and thorough material I know in helping couples to build their marriage on a firm foundation. I have used the material with numerous young couples, and particularly appreciate the thoughtful discussion questions included in the book that allow both the counselor and the couple to interact on a deep and meaningful level. The book helps the couple anticipate what challenges lie before them in their upcoming marriage, and spurs on conversation that will help them to avoid the trouble spots. . . . I heartily recommend it both to pastors and to those who are preparing for marriage."--Timothy A. Senn, pastor, The Bible Church of Little Rock"Weve been using Preparing for Marriage Gods Way for almost ten years now. . . . If youre looking for biblically based premarital material to use in your church or ministry, dont look any further."--Brad Bigney, Grace fellowship Church, Florence, KY"What a wonderful tool! Like all Wayne Macks books, Preparing for Marriage Gods Way is faithfully biblical, thorough, and practical. The priceless bonus with this workbook is its unmatched effectiveness at exposing hidden dangers for engaged couples and providing a platform to help the counselor address them. As a result, couples are much more prepared for the realities of married life."--Marshall Asher, director, Redeemer Counseling Services, San Antonio, Texas"What if there were a book that could equip engaged couples to identify relational problems before they emerge? What if its solutions were not simply sage advice or psychological theory, but the very Word of God? Every couple would want it. Every pastor would use it. This is that book!"--Daniel Kirk, senior pastor, Calvary Bible Church, Fort Worth, TexasPreparing for Marriage Gods Way has been the staple of my pre-marriage counseling for many years. The activities and exercises in this book help the couple to understand their families of origin and the models that they bring to their marriage. I have found that using this book also helps couples to identify the pressure points in their relationships as well as the path forward for resolving the conflicts that occur again and again. This study will get couples into the Word and engaged in conversations they would never have had without completing these studies.--Tedd Tripp, President, Shepherding the Heart Ministries"Wayne Macks commitment to the sufficiency of Scripture and his years of counseling experience make this book and all his books valuable resources.
