I, You and Us: Creating a Loving, Lasting Marriage

Shirley Goldsworthy

Paperback 2009-10-01

Publisher Description

'Love's work is hard work, and Shirley's book doesn't flinch from that. It is a valuable compendium of intensely practical advice, including well-proven strategies, for couples who are serious about nurturing their relationships. It is based on sound principles and is written from a compassionate point of view.' - Hugh Mackay Psychologist, social researcher and novelist. 'You and Us is a much-needed resource based around the words of the wedding service and offers practical wisdom for couples who want to make their wedding day, with its promises and prayers, the foundation of a worthwhile marriage. It will enable clergy to use the wedding service to prepare couples to live out in the years ahead what they vow to each other on one important day.' - Revd Canon Dr Colleen O'Reilly, Chair of Lifeworks; Vicar, St George's Anglican Church, Malvern, VIC. 'Shirley's book is full of practical, down-to-earth ideas and thought-provoking material presented in short "bite-sized" sections accompanied by helpful diagrams. The text includes some useful "Couple Action" sections. Helpful headings direct the reader to understand where their reading will take them. I am always happy to endorse good material aimed at positively helping couples.' - Dr Ivan Herald, Founding Executive Director of OzFAME, Australian Family And Marriage Education
