Mantras for Marriage
Overview
Mantras for Marriage compiles the collective wisdom of television hosts Mike and Gayle Tucker and the couples they’ve met through their ministry. The Tuckers, hosts of the series Mad about Marriage, offer a collection of central marriage principles, or mantras. Every couple is different, so these mantras encompass a wide variety of perspectives, which the Tuckers have grouped into three categories: “Choose,” “Connect,” and “Communicate.” Each mantra is a concrete example of a slogan or phrase that’s helped the couple using it stay strong through life’s inevitable difficulties. Some humorous, some poignant, these mantras connect to issues like trust, power, and decision-making, which will prove relevant to any couple navigating the unpredictable waters of marriage.
