Before the Ring: Questions Worth Asking, Revised edition - Softcover

You’ve always wanted a lifelong marriage. But you’ve also seen the alarming statistics about your chances of achieving this ideal. So how can you know that you’ve truly met the love of your life? How can you see past the stars in your eyes when you’re in love?

William Coleman has spent many years talking with couples: dating couples, engaged couples, married couples, divorced couples, remarried couples. And these conversations have convinced him that while most people would marry the same person again, they would go about it differently. They would learn more, grow more, ask more questions, reveal more of themselves, and argue less.

Not a dry, how-to book, Before the Ring is an entertaining and easy read, punctuated with cartoons that tickle the funny bone and packed with valuable insights. You’ll enjoy Coleman’s humor and wit; you’ll benefit from his experience and wisdom. Allow him to guide you and your dating partner or prospective spouse into discussions of the important, enduring issues by answering self-revealing questions designed to help you get to know and love each other better. Even married couples will benefit from this
refresher course.

There is a way to help assure yourself that you are marrying the right person. But to do that you have to ask questions—the right questions—and get reliable answers. Then you’ll be prepared for lifelong marriage, truly one of God’s greatest gifts.
