21 Days to a Great Marriage

21 Days to a Great Marriage  21 Days to a Great Marriage, A Grownup Approach to Couplehood is written by Dr. Henry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend.  This book has so much information in it.  You can choose to read it in 21 days straight through, but I would recommend for you to take your time to soak in all of the information.  One or two chapters a week may be plenty to work on.

21 Days to a Great Marriage is written for couples in any stage of a relationship, those that believe they already have a great marriage and those that are really struggling to keep their marriage together and everyone in between.  It would be great if you and your spouse could read this book together.  But if you can’t, “your marriage will still profit greatly if you start the journey alone”.  Most of the principles really are about you becoming a better spouse to your mate–we can only change ourselves.  “A Great Marriage is about changing yourself, not your mate.”

I don’t know about you, but when I was young and newly married, I thought that my husband was supposed to make me happy and I was supposed to make him happy.  If either of us weren’t happy the other one was responsible for “fixing” it or at least helping to fix it.  Then I learned, probably in church, that I was responsible for my own happiness and my husband was responsible for his own happiness.  Each of our happiness was between each of us and God.  That information really was a life and marriage changer.  I took back control of my happiness.  That is basically what the first chapter is about–spiritual and emotional growth.  If you have already learned that principle, then you can quickly go to the next chapter.  If not, you’ll want to do some self-analysis and set yourself and your spouse free.

21 Days to a Great Marriage is a great book for newlyweds to read.  These principles are seeds that need to be planted in you for you to apply throughout your life together.

It is also great for those of us that have read lots of marriage books.  Even though you may have heard every principle in this book, you more than likely haven’t perfected every one of them yet.  If you know you need to spend some time focusing on your marriage, this is a great book to help you get focused.
