What others are saying about Getting Ready For Marriage: “Before you, say ‘I do’, read this book! Jim and Doug have directed scores of people in the direction of a healthy, happy, vibrant marriage. They can do the same for you.” —Max Lucado, pastor and NY Times best-selling author “As I read through this outstanding book I kept thinking, ‘I wish Kay and I had this resource before we were married.’ Far too many of the 2.4 million couples who get married each year are not adequately prepared to make it work. I am so happy that there’s a book like this where every page is filled with practical God-honoring advice.” —Rick Warren, pastor and author of The Purpose Driven Life “I absolutely love this book! Over years of research with singles and those dating and married, I’ve seen a need for a simple, compelling book like this, that will walk a couple through the process of… well… getting ready for marriage! I’m thrilled Jim and Doug have put this together. Everyone contemplating marriage, and everyone helping couples who want to get married, will want this outstanding resource!” —Shaunti Feldhahn, social researcher and best-selling author of For Women Only and For Men Only
