"And they lived happily ever after." Only in fairy tales, you say. But there is life after the honeymoon-messy, challenging, happily-married life. That's the great promise of Catholic marriage, and if you're married or considering marriage the joy is there for you, too.

Many Catholics today share the culture's unease-fear of divorce, the prevalence of cohabitation, the wounds of past relationships all conspire to make til-death-do-us-part seem like a risky proposition. But the authors of Catholic and Married all agree, marriage is the adventure of a lifetime.

In these sometimes funny, tell-it-like-it-is chapters, this diverse group of men and women offer you their insights and advice on:

• Children - the gift that keeps on giving
• Marrying young - objections and object lessons
• Contraception - an honest discussion on a touchy subject
• Parenting skills - it's not rocket science (it just feels like it sometimes)
• And much more!

These stories will encourage you to lean into love. Hold nothing back. And experience the Catholic marriage God intended for you.
