What are you agreeing to when you say “I do”? When
a couple promises “I do,” they agree to more than just
a shared last name, a joint bank account, and no more dateless nights.
This husband and wife duo forms a new team. “Life together” becomes
their mantra. Nothing can come between them. At least, that’s the plan. But
then real life sets in. With it come disappointments and frustrations.
If the couple isn’t intentional in their day-to-day interactions, that
once enthusiastic “we” can slowly revert to “you” and “me.” Before long,
the couple’s left wondering what happened
to their team spirit.
Team Us: Marriage Together offers
couples practical ways to cultivate and strengthen
unity in their marriages. Author Ashleigh Slater shares from her own
marriage as she presents couples with realistic ideas on how to foster
cooperation, deepen commitment, and exercise grace on a daily basis.
“Finishing your marriage story well is definitely within your reach, no matter what your history tells you.”
MY REVIEW: I think a "perfect" marriage is rare but making a marriage work and be the most close-to-perfect way is possible with team work and other things needed like understanding, being patient, giving and taking and a lot more. The book Team Us: Marriage Together by Ashleigh Slater is a nice read because it features and shows realistic situations and ideas on how to make marriage work. I like the "Ted Says" part because I can see a glimpse of both sides of their thoughts and feelings. I also like the discussion questions at the end of each chapter because it gives me and hubby the chance to discuss and open up to each other.
This book is a nice read for couples, married people as well as single people who would like to take a glimpse of what married life is like. This book has a lot of nice and concrete examples of the ups and downs of married life and tips on how to cope up and make a marriage last and work.
