Your Marriage Manifesto: How The Vows You Made Can Compel You Towards A Lifelong Marital Commitment

No one gets married to get divorced. If so, why get married? Some might have an “ escape clause ” in writing or even in their own mind but the concept of marriage itself is beautiful simply because it engenders hope and security. That hope and security that all of us long for in marriage. A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person. A great marriage is not when the ‘perfect couple’ comes together. It is when an imperfect couple learns to enjoy their differences. In this little book, Chris J. Gregas takes the tried and true “traditional vows” and examines each phrase and the meaning behind it. It is a true Marriage Manifesto, a public declaration of your policy and aims as you walk together heart by heart for the rest of your days. Great marriages are not made up of ingredients like perfection and spellbinding skills. It is littered with challenging work, a dogged commitment, and a willingness to fall in love all over again at each stage of your marriage. A good marriage is a contest of generosity. It is a selfless journey to find oneself, celebrate your individuality but also aspire to bring out the best in your spouse. This is a book that you will read over and over again as a refresher each year you are married. Designed for Pastors, Ministers and Officiants to personalize and give to the couple at the reception.
