Overview

Half of all couples who marry this year will be divorced within five years. We know statistically that the other 50 percent of couples will stand a better chance of succeeding if they seek counseling before they take their vows. Premarital Counseling: A Biblical Model comes from the heart and study of a long-term pastor who has helped scores of couples prepare for the day they say "I do." The book outlines for pastors a program of counseling that includes interviews, tests, and guidelines for each partner, as well as practical suggestions for marriage success. This valuable resource also includes a wedding planner, various approaches to the wedding program, sample ceremonies, budget work sheets, and numerous other helps. For the pastor seeking guidance for this vital aspect of ministry, this is a can't-do-without-it book. About the Author Dr. Ray E.
