Synopsis
Readers of this innovative book can
get their marriage off to a terrific start by Knowing Me,
Knowing You. By thoroughly knowing one another--each other's
beliefs, pet peeves, and expectations about the endless details
regarding family, friends, children, finances, careers, etc.--a
couple can discover areas of potential conflict and can then
discuss them proactively.
This may sound intimidating, but this
two-book set makes it easy and fun because the issues are
laid out in a multiple-choice quiz. There are no essays and
no trick questions--just common sense issues set in a multiple-choice
format. All each partner has to do is to check the box that
applies to him/her. It's so easy even those who normally avoid
counseling will do it!
There are two books--one for men
and one for women. In 18 chapters, each comprehensive quiz
covers topics from faith to family to finances--and includes
many points most couples don't think to discuss. The man and
woman complete their quizzes independently, and then compare
answers to find potential problem areas, which they can then
discuss.
This easy-to-use book highlights areas
where real-life couples clash. When marriage-busting stressors
such as poor health or financial difficulties arrive, the
couple will be better equipped to deal with the problems.
Through the discussions prompted by this book, they will have
discovered and developed common values and strategies that
will help them to cope with life’s inevitable challenges with
unity.
