Editorial Reviews

"This is a refreshingly biblical, cutting-edge vision of marriage as it could be—if we were to drop the cultural myths that weigh us down. DeLashmutt and McCallum invite us to revel in the hope that intimacy isn't based on finding the right person, but on becoming the right person—a man or woman of depth, passion and godly character."

Dr. Dan B. Allender
Director, Wounded Heart Ministries

"This is the best nuts and bolts guide to marriage I have ever seen!"

Today's Christian Woman, Editor's Choice

"I'm not given to gratuitous praise. . . honestly, I have never come across a book on dating and marriage preparation that is so thorough, so biblical and so compassionately presented. Your points are carefully explored or supported from a scriptural foundation, and throughout you present hard-to-hear truths in such a kind, caring manner that your readers can't help but pay attention. . . I loved it!"

Kathy Olsen, Editor, Tyndale House Publishers

"McCallum and DeLashmutt argue that finding the right person is secondary to becoming the right person, and that the choice of who and when to marry must be rooted in a different value system than mere physical and emotional attraction."

"(Spiritual Relationships That Last) is great for singles wondering how to know they are ready for marriage, a well as study groups and marriage preparation classes. The book will also help couples already married to regain their perspective and set their agenda for success God's way."
