Overview

"""A teacher who cannot explain any abstract subject to a child does not himself thoroughly understand his subject; if he does not attempt to break down his knowledge to fit the child's mind, he does not understand teaching"" Bishop Fulton Sheen The Marathon to Marriage is indeed a compendium for Remote Marriage Preparation per the provision of Canon 1063, 1� of the 1983 Code of Canon Law. Herein is a marital resource book for the young people as well as for all parents, teachers and those who work towards the promotion of marriage and family life. Marriage is not a sprint. Marriage is a marathon. It is a marathon journey that needs not only one step at a time and the tenacity to keep going, but more importantly one which needs real preparation and passion. As Saint Therese of Lisieux says, ""You know well enough that Our Lord does not look so much at the greatness of our actions, nor even at their difficulty, but at the love with which we do them"". Since it is difficult to teach an old dog a new trick, this book provides a biblical, canonical and pastoral pedagogy on relationship and marriage issues that will blow the mind of any Christian seeker. It addresses A to Z concerns and challenges that plague today's youth before marriage, such that even the married will read it with nostalgia and wish they had known these details before marriage. Thus, for them this book is a great refresher course and to the rest it is the vadamecum for the marriage vocation journey. It is a must read! ""If we are, in fact, now occupied in good deeds, we should not attribute the strength with which we are doing them to ourselves. We must not count on ourselves, because even if we know what kind of person we are today, we do not know what we will be tomorrow"". Saint Gregory the Great"
