De la contraportada

PRAISE FOR A Lasting Promise

“I’ve long prayed for people to discover from sound research how to help couples thrive. I truly believe that Scott Stanley and his colleagues are an answer to that prayer. I not only give this book ‘two thumbs up,’ but I lift up both my hands in thanksgiving to God for the work they are doing.”
—Gary Smalley, author, The DNA of Relationships

“This is much more than a second edition—in many ways it’s a new book. The research is cutting edge and the theological integration is deeper, yet it’s somehow even more practical. A Lasting Promise will free you to enjoy the deep levels of intimacy that God designed for marriage.”
—Gary J. Oliver, Th.M., Ph.D., professor, John Brown University; author, Mad About Us

“What a fantastic book! Few marriage resources can stand on as much solid research as A Lasting Promise. Its practical strategies and applications have made it a favorite among couples. The Christian underpinnings make this new edition ideal for couples who prize their faith.”
—Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott, authors, Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts

“The first edition of this book was so helpful to our marriage that it’s become required reading for every newlywed in our church. This has produced many couples wise beyond their years. We’re excited to introduce this new edition to our congregation, as well as to replace our personal copy that is falling apart due to heavy use—a fate this new edition will also suffer.”
—John and Pam McGee, Watermark Community Church, Dallas, Texas
