Publisher's Synopsis
The Participant's Booklet is meant to be used by each individual participant, whether in a parish program or for home use. The Participant's Booklet contains all the information needed to take part in each of the 12 sessions, including: prayer, reflection questions, a summary of each presentation, integrative couples' exercises, homework suggestions and closing prayer. If an individual couple intends to use this series as a home study program, the couple will need a set of DVD's with the Video Presentations and two Participant's Booklets.
About the series This marriage enrichment series combines a Catholic theology of marriage with the findings from scientific research to offer married couples both inspiration and practical help. The inspiration comes from the riches of the Catholic faith that gives meaning to marriage as a Vocation, a Covenant and a Sacrament. The practical help comes from over 40 years of research by the Gottman Institute that identifies the factors that predict divorce as well as the factors the predict success in marriage. Faith and science are woven together in this series through the use of video presentations, couples exercises and prayer, to help couples achieve a more meaningful, stable and satisfying relationship.
