Product Description
Many specialists in family relations say the number-one problem in marriages today is not sex, money or children, but lack of communication between husband and wife. H. Norman Wright tackles this dilemma in the Christian book on couples communication. Presenting insightful ways to reduce marital conflict, manage anger, build one another’s self-esteem and just plain listen to one another, Wright provides couples with the resources to understand each other at new and deeper levels. Ideal for married and pre-married couples, counselors, lay counselors, mentors and pastors, this classic has been fully revised and updated for marriages in the new millennium.

This book really is wonderful. It is a great at-home counseling tool for couples to do themselves. There are questions and exercises throughout, and at the end of each chapter, to help guide you through constructive conversation between you and your spouse. The book talks about personality traits and gives examples and couples’ stories that you can really relate to. It was not uncommon for me to say at times when reading the book, “This is me they’re talking about” or “They’re describing my husband and our relationship.” I’ve began to buy it as gifts for friends. This book really did bless me and it enabled me to see me.

There’s nothing really new or insightful in this book for anyone who has had some training in Christian relational and marital dynamics. Wright here offers a good definition of Christian marriage, pointers on communication, and a lengthy explanation of personality types. He concludes his work by providing some advice on anger and how to resolve conflict. This book isn’t bad, but I’ve read far better and much more stimulating titles.
Rating: 3 / 5
highly recommend this book for those looking for a practical read, experiencing trouble or just curious about the how to improve communication between yourself and a significant other/spouse. the book teaches a lot of communication skills as well as highlights gender differences to explain how each party may perceive the same message differently. so far the book has been very helpful.

We bought several copies of this book (new), knowing that it was excellent for groups, to use in a study. It is a shame the binding isn’t as good as the book. By the time you finish chapter one, all the pages of the chapter have become inserts. And it continues on in the same manner. It should come with a binder and a hole punch.
