Marriage Readiness

Mental Readiness for Marriage Program

Successful marriages are built on more than love, good intentions and shared values. The way people think, learn, make decisions and respond to life's challenges can significantly influence the quality and stability of their relationships. Many relationship difficulties can be traced to issues such as poor judgement, rigid thinking, unhealthy family influences, resistance to personal growth or ineffective decision-making.

For this reason, it is important to evaluate not only a person's character and emotions but also the mental qualities that contribute to long-term relationship success.

In this practical guide, Joy equips readers with tools for evaluating the mental readiness of prospective marriage partners while developing these competencies in their own lives. Through practical examples, fictional stories, reflection and assessment tools and personal development practices, readers will explore the habits, attitudes and thought processes that support healthy relationships and lasting marriages.
