Marriage is the foundation of the family unit. In this society and time, the family is the closest knit, self-perpetuating, self-protecting unit. A culture will go by the boards if its basic building block, the family, is removed as a valid building block. So one can be fairly sure that he who destroys marriage destroys the civilization.

Communication is the root of marital success from which a strong union can grow. Noncommunication is the rock on which the ship will bash out her keel.

In the booklet Marriage and its corresponding course, you will discover methods to make a marriage work, why marriages fail, how to discover if partners are well suited to each other, and how to save a failing marriage.
