Christiantown, USA

Here is the most comprehensive volume to date on the impact of religion on marriage and family relationships.

This enlightening book examines the real life experiences of 50 couples.

To accurately assess the influence of religion on the marriages of church-goers, the significance of other important forces are considered as well—level of education, job satisfaction, income, sex life, patterns of decision making, coping strategies, and the demands of parenting.

Of special interest to pastors, counselors, and social workers, Christiantown USA offers an enormously helpful perspective of the contemporary family and seeks to expose inappropriate, misleading, and sometimes debilitating stereotypes about Christian families.

It provides an honest assessment of the concerns of married couples and their families and clarifies the nature and extent of common problems in need of attention by professionals and researchers seeking to understand and help the modern American family.
