Compiled by the editors of Marriage Partnership magazine, the NIV Couples' Devotional Bible contains 312 marriage-building devotions by such well-known authors as Chuck Swindoll, Bill Hybels, Dave and Jan Dravecky, Stuart and Jill Briscoe, Larry Crabb, Ruth Bell Graham, Les and Leslie Parrott, and Gary Smalley. At the end of each devotion are Marriage Builders -- questions to help couples communicate beyond their schedules and checkbooks. Each weekend a self-evaluation, a fun quiz, or another short feature helps newlyweds examine and improve their relationship. Finances, intimacy, romance, communication, goals, trusting God, and prayer are only a few of the pertinent topics covered. All subjects are of great personal interest to couples who want to start their marriage off right.

The key to having an emotionally satisfying marriage is to apply Scripture to all areas of life, "in sickness and in health, for richer or for poorer". The NIV Couples' Devotional Bible will help newlyweds do just that.
