  • Getting Ready For Marriage Workbook (Workbook)

    $19.99

    The saying goes “When you marry, you don’t just marry an individual, you marry a whole family.” But more specifically, you are marrying the influences that family has had on your spouse. Our families have shaped our views on everything from religion to finances to sex, and, whether helpful or harmful, these views are brought to our marriage and can unknowingly affect it.

    Getting Ready for Marriage Workbook helps engaged couples and newlyweds:
    *learn what “ghosts” they bring to marriage
    *examine their family backgrounds
    *determine guidelines for their own marriage

    Through interactive exercises, couples discover the roots of their beliefs, sight potential problem areas, and learn how to successfully work through problems. Couples are then encouraged to make their own covenants in specific areas such as financial matters, resolving conflict, religious orientation, and family planning & children-essential in building a strong marriage partnership.

  • Are You Ready For True Love

    $12.49

    Discern between relational fits, misfits, and counterfeits. There are a lot more counterfeit men than money. About the only exercise some guys get is running out of money and after women. Brains are what a man looks for in a wife, after not using any in selecting one. If a man tells a woman she’s beautiful, she’ll overlook most of his other lies. Courtship is that period during which the female decides whether or not she can do any better. The trouble with marriage is not the institution. It’s the personnel. One reason why so many marriages are failing is that so many inexperienced people get into them. Avoid cupidity meeting stupidity. It is better to be single and happy than married and miserable. Most girls seem to marry men like their fathers. Maybe that’s the reason so many mothers cry at weddings. Romance often begins by a splashing waterfall and ends over a leaky sink. For many an adult education begins with marriage. Don’t get into the sea of matrimony on a wave of enthusiasm. Beyond love at first sight, get divine insight. Learn a lot before tying the knot.

    3. Preparing Daughters For Courtship
    4. Culmination Of Courtship
    5. Details Of Courtship

    Additional Info
    The modern dating system is bankrupt. It does not train young people to form a relationship but rather to form a series of relationships, hardening themselves to all but the current one. Recreational dating encourages emotional attachments without convenantal fences and makes a joke of a father’s authority. The disrespect children have for their fathers in this area is an echo of the disrespect fathers have for their own office.

    Biblical courtship provides a wonderful freedom. It involves familial wisdom and godly protection. Grounded upon the involved authority of the father, courtship delights in its public connection to the lives of families. Sexual purity is a great inheritance for a marriage, and part of the fathers job is to guarantee to protect that heritage.

    Biblical courtship is a humble affront to the sterility of modern relationships. And as a new generation rejoices in this ancient wisdom, the current waves of broken relationships will begin to recede.
