Marriage: Small Steps, Big Rewards

I recently read the book Marriage: Small Steps, Big Rewards by Dr. Ray Guarendi.  If you are already a fan of Dr. Guarendi (which we absolutely are around here, check out his website if you have never visited it before), you know that most of his books take an easy conversational tone. This book is no different.  The simple, direct and friendly approach means that this is a book that can be read in small snatches here and there when life calls you to take care of other projects.

This book focuses on ten small steps you can take to improve the communication and relationship inside your marriage.  Each step is covered in a manner which points out things you can do to change your reactions without feeling as if you are loosing or giving up on something.  Subtle reminders are planted throughout the book that the simplest changes can have the biggest impact. 

While I do not feel that this book would be a fix-it manual for the most troubled marriage, I do feel it is an excellent book for those who are looking for ways to improve their current workable relationship.  Share it with your spouse today.

This review was written as part of the Catholic book reviewer program from The Catholic Company. Visit The Catholic Company to find more information on Marriage - Small Steps, Big Rewards. They are also a great source for a Catechism of the Catholic Church or a Catholic Bible.
