Living together : myths, risks & answers / Mike and Harriett McManus ; foreword by Chuck Colson.
The authors argue that the divorce rate is actually higher among couples who live together before marriage. They take a fundamental position that one can not practice permanence, and unless a marriage is established as permanent, a couple will not approach it the same way. The authors also suggest important principles that give couples the necessary tools for a successful marriage.
