What is my goal? What balance do we take in terms of being ourselves / being a couple? What do we do when it seems impossible? Why should I put in the effort to resolve conflict? Until reading this book, I had no clear understanding of what it looks like to be a wife (or husband). The explanations he gives of how God designs marriage - what it means to leave, cleave and become one flesh - really make it clear what my role is as a spouse. The many different troubles couples experience in the book cover many of the possible problems seen in a typical marriage.
In this book, Walter Trobisch narrates the conversations he has and lectures/sermons he gives over the course of a week in Africa. I expected this to be a surface-level "christian book," with little practical advice and a lot of good-sounding fluff.
Neither of us has really had much of an example of a healthy marriage - we're sort of making it up as we go. I was given this book by a friend while having trouble with my husband.
