Two lives becoming one: that's the marriage deal. But maybe you've discovered that it's easier said than done. How do you solve problems? How do you establish healthy communication? How do you work out conflict and deal with the struggle of differing needs? In the process of knitting two souls together, it's easy to tear the fabric. That's why boundaries the ways we define and maintain our sense of individuality, freedom, and personal integrity are so important. And it's why the principles described in Boundaries in Marriage are essential if you want your marriage to flourish.
     Using videos, Counselors Henry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend, best-selling authors of the Gold Medallion Award winning book Boundaries , will show you:

• Why boundaries are vital for a thriving, productive marriage
  
• How values form the structure and architecture of marriage
  
• How to protect a marriage from intruders, whether parents, other people, affairs or personal idols
  
• Why each partner needs to establish personal boundaries, and how to go about it
  
• How to work with a spouse who understands and values boundaries and how to work with one who doesn't

     Whether you are just starting out as a couple, have been married for years, or are seriously contemplating marriage, Boundaries in Marriage will show you how to establish your own boundaries and respect those of your partner. Drawing on principles from the Bible, it can help you safeguard against relational fractures and mend existing cracks. It may even save your marriage. And it can help make the best marriage better.
