Commitment to the Covenant

by Richard J. McClendon, Debra Theobald McClendon

In recent decades, prophets have repeatedly emphasized how a strong marriage and family is the basis of a robust society; they have counseled and warned of the many modern obstacles that can erode a healthy family life. This book draws on inspiring personal stories, research from sociology and psychology, and teachings of the gospel of Jesus Christ to present key principles that, when applied, will help a marriage thrive. The authors use three broad content areas—the things we each need to do personally to improve our marriage (me), the things we need to do together as a couple to strengthen our marital relationship (we), and ways we can more fully involve God in our marriage relationship (Thee). This three-part approach is both theoretical and practical and will help guide readers to a successful and happy marriage.

Very well written, with personal stories from the authors' own marriage and from generous clients. This would make a terrific wedding gift but it's also helpful to those of us who have been married for a few years.

I have been reading this off and on for nearly a year and know I won't finish. The book doesn't draw me back to find out more. I'd be more likely to finish if my library had an audiobook available so that I could go about my chores while listening.
