內容簡介

最受歡迎的基督徒婚姻長銷書《快樂夫妻成長指南》最新增訂版

 

新增〈向上帝祈求：為你的婚姻禱告〉、〈瓦器：為什麼身體很重要？〉、〈在科技時代保護「我們」：婚姻與科技〉等21世紀最適切章節！

 

婚姻，是上帝所設立的學校！與神共築，親密對話的安全環境

 

婚後終於發現相愛容易相處難？吵架時的配偶對話，往往正中柔軟心底要害處？感覺卡在至死方休的婚姻承諾中，動彈不得？夫妻一定要共同接受婚姻輔導，才有改變的可能？

 

美國婚姻成長課程PREP（預防與關係教育課程）

橫跨數十年、遍及全球的大型縱貫研究發現，幸福夫妻的相處模式有數千種，婚姻不幸福的模式卻大同小異；而夫妻雙方之中，只要有一方願意依據本書策略培養身體、心靈以及靈性新習慣，做出實際小改變，口角煙硝四起的廳堂臥室，就能變成重現伊甸美景的人間天堂。

 

這也是神藉著婚姻，要送給每對佳偶的結婚禮物：與另一半共同體驗合一奧祕，共享親密對話，同心服事，以及攜手並肩的同步成長。
