This material was written in support of the Cambodia mission in January 2006.

This extensive study was written in 1997 for our premarital Bible study with the large crop of engaged students in our college class at Elmcrest Baptist Church in Abilene, TX, where we led the college ministry. It covers just about all of the marriage-relevant passages in the Bible and hits on all of the important topics couples need to consider before they get married. It also includes a number of book reviews that tap wisdom from the best available Christian authors, as well. A lot of the content can easily be repurposed for use with married couples. Originally, we called the study, “Before You Say, ‘I do.'”
