About this title

From the Publisher:

An estimated 50% of marriages in America end in divorce. That's not surprising, considering that a recent university study showed that the average married couple spends only about six minutes per week in serious discussion. The job, the newspaper, the television, and the telephone take time away from couples who need time to talk.

The NIV Couples' Devotional Bible, written in conjunction with Marriage Partnership magazine and more than 140 writers, intends to help couples improve communication and bring the principles of scripture into the marriage relationship.

AUTHORs like Stephen Arterburn, Charles Colson, Charles Swindoll, and Joni Eareckson Tada give couples their personal insights (via daily Marriage Builder devotionals) on the ingredients of a healthy, Christ-centered marriage. The Weekending devotionals pose pressing questions spouses can ask of themselves and each other.

The topics are as broad and as important as marriage itself. Communication. Work. Sex. In-laws. Decision-making. Money. Spiritual growth. Friends. Fun. Not only does the Couples' Devotional Bible bring mates closer to each other, it also draws them closer to God.
