I Promise: How Five Commitments Determine the Destiny of Your Marriage
"The author’s impeccable grasp of what makes a marriage work is better than ever in his latest relationship guide. Nathan Larkin sounds unusually calm and centered as he spells out Smalley’s advice: Ironclad commitment to each other—no matter what happens—is an absolute necessity to promote mutual trust and authentic growth. The little things are also important: how we manage our appearance, habits, and career; how we listen; and how we show appreciation. Smalley’s lists of commitments and recommendations are illustrated with cogent stories from his own marriage and those of his clients. They show that security is best achieved when we serve our spouses daily and anchor ourselves to God’s love and authority."T.W. © AudioFile Portland, Maine
