Growing Together
By Andrew Body
Review
Andrew Body’s book, Growing Together, is straightforward and down to earth, accessible and readable. Andrew Body brings his considerable experience as an Anglican vicar, founder trustee of Family Life and Marriage Education and a Counsellor for Relate, to bear on the subject.
Each chapter is framed in terms of where are you coming from, where are you now and where are you going? This enables couples to reflect on the ingredients they are bringing to their marriage and the sort of marriage they would like to build assisted by the question boxes, entitled “Things to talk about and share”, offered as they work their way though a chapter. Topics covered include communication, commitment, companionship, children families sex, roles and much more. There are some very valuable and powerful examples and insights into the joys and challenges of building a healthy marriage tucked into this small book. Having talked some of these issues through before marriage is a valuable step for all couples, and the author encourages them to seek help early with any tricky problems.
