<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Considered by many to be the standard in the field. With a Bible in hand, Wright introduces theory, then gets right down to how counseling sessions should be run. In this revised edition, he has added new material to cover such perplexing issues as interracial marriages and couples where one or both come from dysfunctional families.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>In any endeavor, dreams and goals not backed by concrete plans and preparations can result in failure. And marriage is no exception, claims H. Norman Wright. In fact, without solid planning and forethought by engaged couples, we will surely see a continuation of the startling divorce rate among Christians and non-Christians alike. On the other hand, thorough premarital counseling and preparation can result in lifelong marriages that are fulfilling and God honoring. That's where the church comes in. <br/><br/>More and more churches are realizing that their responsibility lies not only in pronouncing men and women 'husband and wife, ' but also in making sure the proper foundation is laid so that marriages have a better chance of standing strong under pressure. Since its introduction in 1977 as <i>Premarital Counseling</i>, this book has been used by thousands of churches throughout the country as both a guide and reference tool. Now Dr. Wright has added new material to cover some perplexing issues that have come into prominence only recently. Among those special concerns are interracial marriages, second marriages, and marriages of persons from dysfunctional families. <br/><br/>Writing for both pastors and other premarital counselors, H. Norman Wright sets you at ease about the counseling process, even if you've had only limited counseling experience. As the author of the popular <i>Before You Say I Do</i> and numerous other books on marriage, H. Norman Wright documents in The <i>Premarital Counseling Handbook</i> methods hat have proved successful.
