Close to our hearts

Aldegonde Brenninkmeijer-Werhahn, Klaus Demmer

Does taking a lifelong vow of marriage still make sense today? The 24 contributors to this book - all internationally recognized specialists in marriage - show, from a variety of perspectives, that it remains profoundly meaningful to understand marriage as a shared path that leads to maturity. Not only do the authors present fundamental theological and philosophical ideas from the past 2,500 years, but they also speak about their own personal experiences.
