Any married person will tell you, there's a huge difference between what you expect marriage will be like, and what marriage is actually like. For so many couples, the struggle is real as the "reality check" of marriage begins to unfold with each passing year. But while marriage may be hard, a healthy marriage doesn't stop there. Because by learning to journey through the hard things, you get the opportunity to experience the great things on the other side.

With a candid, yet compassionate, approach, licensed counselor and relationship expert, Debra Fileta, walks you through eight significant choices involved in taking marriage from hard to great. Throughout each chapter, Debra shares astonishing survey results from thousands of singles and married couples, revealing intimate details about things like love, sex, conflict, communication, and attraction. From her experience as a professional counselor and wife, Debra believes that a beautiful exchange occurs when spouses learn what it means to choose we before me.

Discover practical steps you can take on the hard, but great, journey of choosing marriage. Single or married, Choosing Marriage is the audio guide for you!

Good listen

This is great to improve a marriage. A lot of the content is not unique and in most marriage books, but good to be reminded of.

A MUST READ!

Thank you, Deb! This was hands down one of the best, practical, and useful marriage books I have ever read! I pray that it would make its way into the hands of every pre-marital arrangement as well as every marriage that has not yet experienced the blessing of “Choosing Marriage!”

A larger picture of marriage

A good resource with a broad perspective on marriage. If you are honest with yourself, you will find that you need to work on yourself first.

Excellent resource!

Debra does an excellent job of using her expertise in Christian counseling to point to biblical truths on marriage. This was an enjoyable read even as it stepped on my toes. I look forward to rereading as we work to make our marriage even better. Thank you!

Well thought out and full of good advice

Just to give perspective, I have read or listened to many dating and marriage books and one thing I really appreciate about Debra Fileta is that she discusses topics in a very balanced and full pictured way. I loved reading her book True Love Dates and was excited to hear that she was coming out with Choosing Marriage. Even though I am not married yet, I was convicted of different issues I see in my life and was encouraged to discover them and start dealing with them now instead of after getting married. This book goes to the core and helps discover heart issues that need to be healed to have a healthy and thriving marriage as well as talking through the misconceptions we often have of marriage and the actual reality of day-to-day life onced married. Marriage really is about making many choices of loving another even when you don't feel like it and also learning to discuss both of your needs with each other so you can both meet those needs in a balanced and healthy way. Both partners need to be on the same page and choose marriage. Very well written book! I will definitely add this to my books to re-listen to and would definitely recommend this to married couples, those who are dating, and singles.
