Hi everyone,
I agree that today’s class was really interesting! I loved talking about engagement and marriage. I think the quote he mentioned about how marriage is a process, not an event is really important to keep in mind. I feel like a lot of people focus too much on planning for a wedding and not on the lifelong process of marriage. Also, our discussion on how it is important to address issues during the engagement period is so true. My Bible study and our priest were talking tonight about these topics and he also emphasized this point. He mentioned counseling couples after marriage that did not talk through things and how some are struggling, and counseling couples during the engagement period and how beneficial it was to their relationship. A girl in my group had actually taken the FOCCUS premarital intervention test that we discussed in class and she said it was really eye opening. She said it helped her fiancé and her discuss the things they needed to, and then move forward.
