Preparation for engagement and marriage 101 Text:  No Longer Two: A Christian Guide For Engagement and Marriage Divorce rates in the United States are now around 50 percent says the United States Census Bureau. This rate is up from 43 percent in 1988. If this trend continues, the divorce rate will soon reach the 60 percent mark. One disappointing fact is that divorce among Christians is at its highest ever. Mike Huckabee, governor of Arkansas has declared a "marital emergency." His goal is to halve the divorce rate in his state by 2010. Frank Keating, governor of Oklahoma has initiated a campaign to reduce the divorce rate in his state by a third by 2009. One of the approaches being used by governments and church groups to reduce the divorce rate is pre-marital counseling for engaged couples. Some clergy now refuse to marry a couple unless they have completed such a course. This book is a highly acclaimed marriage preparation course which has been used widely in Great Britain. This book offers an exciting way of working together at building a strong marriage based upon the clear teaching and common sense of the Bible. Whether or not you are familiar with the Bible, you will find this book an easy-to-use guide--perfect for individuals and groups alike.
