Marriage and Maturity

The Truth About Holy Matrimony

About this book

Why is marriage so challenging for many couples? The answer to this loaded question is not merely emotional in nature, it is developmental. Most marriage improvement books focus on the need to change behaviors to change the relationship. However, what is usually lacking is the emphasis on personal transformation that is required for lasting progress. Marriage and Maturity seeks to fill that gap by offering a new perspective on the missing link in marital fulfillment.Topics include understanding marital maturity vs. immaturity; trauma, healing, and marital distress; caveats regarding pastoral counseling; challenging the "happy wife, happy life" principle; why adultery is not a sufficient basis for divorce; and strategies for developing marital maturity. Marriage and Maturity is sure to challenge views on the traditional approaches to this coveted relationship. This book is for everyone who is hoping to get married, is already married, or is counseling married couples.
