About this listen
New York Times number one best-selling authors of Teaching Your Children Values and relationship experts Richard and Linda Eyre explore the eight most common myths about marriage and the truth about how to have a successful and fulfilling marriage.
Exploring equality versus synergy, completion versus individual quest, harmony versus productive debate, a test drive versus constant commitment, and more, the Eyres show that popular opinions and behaviors toward successful marriages actually reduce the chance of marriage fulfillment.
Drawing on more than 50 years of marriage and hundreds of interviews across the world, The 8 Myths of Marriaging is a must-read book for anyone considering marriage or currently nurturing their marriage of many years.

Great marriages don't just happen - they're made, intentionally, day by day. Yet most of us enter the covenant of marriage thinking that the role of spouse will be easy, natural, effortless. Rarely is this true. In fact, the number one cause of divorce isn't adultery or finances or disagreements. It's apathy - a lack of intentional emotional, physical, and mental investment in the relationship.

An Excellent 👌 Book
I had been watching the I am Mom Summit a few years ago and fell in love with this couple promoting the book and just now got around to reading it. I have been listening to it and taking notes. It has opened my mind, given me better ways to express what I have always thought. I loved that it appealed to my heart, my mind and my soul. I love the conversations it's ignited amongst my immediate and extended family and one I believe every couple should read together and individually. #marriaging
