Any marriage prep book suggestions!?

cmjurkiewicz

I'm looking for a good Christian (or preferably Catholic) book about marriage.  Any suggestions?  I read "Inviting God to Your Wedding" by Martha Williamson and loved it.  I think it would help me focus on the sacrament as opposed to the party planning, which can be a little overwhelming sometimes.  Anyway, I can't find any at my library, and I like to have a review of a book before I spend money on it...Thanks!

For our marriage prep classes we are using the book only love can make it easy by bill and patty coleman. It has a lot of workseet type things in it and it's pretty cool.

I second this suggestion. I'm reading it and it's great!

I third Christopher west. Also, 101 questions to ask before getting engaged. We went through it after getting engaged and it was still really good preparation and opened up a lot of good discussions. Not strictly theological, but definitely Christian based.

I also recommend Christopher West.  It's really brought my understanding of our faith to a new level.
