A Catholic Handbook for Engaged and Newly Married Couples - Frederick W. Marks, Ph.D. - Emmaus Road (Paperback)

Marriage has been variously described as a great work, a great adventure, a great responsibility, and a great joy. Author Frederick Marks’ Catholic Handbook for Engaged & Newly Married Couples (Third Edition) supplies everything needed to make a marriage truly great in every way.

First introducing the nature of the sacrament of marriage, Marks then proposes ways that couples can grow closer emotionally and spiritually both before and after their wedding. Emphasizing “marriage preparation” over “wedding planning”, the Catholic Handbook for Engaged & Newly Married Couples offers a mature perspective on the first years of marriage as well as family life, spirituality, and sexuality.
