Synopsis

In an increasingly global and connected world, marriages between spouses of different countries and cultures are on the rise. Marla Alupoaicei, herself wed to a Romanian, helps couples sort through such issues as food, finances, family, and such 'hidden' problems as different understandings of what it means to be 'on time.' Marla combines real-life stories with expert perspectives and biblical insight for a helpful guide both for those just starting out on the intercultural adventure - and those in the midst of it.

You'll get practical and biblical advice for handling the most common intercultural conflicts, including:

• Planning your wedding
• Communication
• Understanding each other's values
• Different views of time
• Agreeing on food
• Managing finances
• Intimacy
• Raising children
• Handling illness and grief

From the Back Cover

Karen inherited a legacy of brokenness and unhappy marriages—divorce and dysfunction haunted each generation. She was determined to break the cycle. But how?

Crawford inherited a legacy of loving committed marriages that he could trace back to his great, great grandfather, Peter, a former slave. He was determined to continue it. But how?

WHAT WILL YOUR LEGACY BE?

Karen and Crawford Loritts’s marriage not only survived but also became a shining example of Christlike love and commitment. Learn how yours can too—regardless of your family background.

This book will certainly help you with the "how’s" of marriage—working through conflict, understanding your spouse’s unique needs, and developing the relationship habits you can’t do without. But more than that, it will show you the "why" behind those "how’s." Karen and Crawford will teach you about the mission and vision of marriage and how to build your marriage with the next generation in mind.

Invest in your marriage today and transform your family’s tomorrow.
