The Twelve Gifts in Marriage

By Charlene Costanzo

     Marriage has always been a sacred event. Two people vow to love, honor, and cherish each other for the rest of their lives, but what happens after that? In "The Twelve Gifts of Marriage," Charlene Costanzo takes readers through the journey of marriage. Costanzo gives us a touching tale of a couple and the trials and lessons of marriage and their triumphs using the gifts they each have: "Strength, Beauty, Courage, Compassion, Hope, Joy, Talent, Imagination, Reverence, Wisdom, Love, and Faith."

    Marriage is a topic that has become somewhat controversial these days. We live in a world where divorces are just as common as marriages. Costanzo reaches to her audience in a tender, endearing way and shows that there are better answers to dealing with the trials of a marriage. This is an incredible book. I strongly recommend it for any couple.
