This book is intended as a teaching guide for Catholic/Christian clergy/catechists and an individual study guide for those contemplating sacramental Christian marriage. It is also a 'help' guide for those struggling with difficulties in their current marriages. The work is also a guide for those with an interest in upholding the concept of a free, faithful, fruitful, and forever commitment between one man and one woman in an era where communal commitments between parties are becoming more widely defined and formalized by civil laws, and the engagement into such relationships has dropped below 50% of the population. Engaging in this work, the readers will explore the concept of life-long relationship of marriage as a sacramental life of service, and find support for continuing that commitment through difficulties and successes that naturally challenge and cement such commitments.
