This book is a wedding gift. Christa Meves initially wrote it for her children. She wanted to give them something of their own to take along their journey. Therefore, she tries to share some of the experiences she has gained in a large psychagogical practice and through many human encounters in this "Marriage Alphabet." Her focus is not on recipes for everyday married life, but on fundamental attitudes that make a marriage worth living today, through all crises. It is a very personal guide dedicated to readers who face the challenges of a modern partnership and who, despite all the siren calls of our times, have the courage to enter into a lifelong commitment with God's help.
