How to Be First in a Second Marriage: Forgiveness and Healing for All Concerned

Rating:
Summary: This Book Has the Wrong Title
Review: This book should be subtitled "...: A Guide Exclusively for Christians Who Wish to Have a Completely Traditional Marriage." Sweet does not include even a nod to the possibility that some people in second marriages celebrate holidays other than Christmas and Easter. More disturbing is her assumption that a good marriage is based on the woman's subservience to the man. She suggests that the bride make this commitment in her marriage vows: "[F]rom this time on, I yeild all rights to leadership in our home to you. I will only assume those that God gives me through you, my husband" (180). This book is totally useless to me, and very disappointing.
