Dr. Van Epp doesn't just express his opinions. Rather, he uses scores of university studies to reinforce his advice for marital preparation. Unsurprisingly, these studies reaffirm many of the traditional Christian teachings about marriage. Yet, Dr. Van Epp doesn't "preach" at his readers. He lets the statistics, objective research, and his counseling experience do the talking. This low-key approach to communicating about marriage preparation will make his book appealing to all young adults - both those who accept Christian moral teachings about this phase of life, as well as those who do not.
This book is an excellent resource for avoiding disastrous marital choices as well as gaining valuable insights into how to choose a soul mate for life.
Along with Dr. Van Epp's book, this combo includes Steve Wood's vital CD entitled Strategies for Using the Book How to Avoid Falling in Love with a Jerk. A critical question for Catholic parents is: "How do you get the anti-cohabitation message across to people whose hearts and minds are closed to the truth? How do you convince a son or daughter who has stopped listening to the Church and believes the Church stands in his or her way to happiness?"
In this breakthrough CD, Steve answers those critical questions by offering commentary and strategies for using Dr. Van Epps' book. This CD is the perfect resource to share with cohabiting couples. Steve explains a way that could reach even couples who are already cohabiting and persuade them to separate!
The problem of cohabitation is HUGE. And there aren't a lot of solutions out there. That's why every Catholic parent should prepare to head off future problems by listening to and heeding the advice on this CD.
