The Couple Checkup: Find Your Relationship Strengths, Olson, Olson-Sigg, & Larson |
"As a member of the Couple Checkup Research Team, I can assure you that this book is based on solid research and Biblical principles. Together with your personalized online Couple Checkup report, there is no self-help resource more capable of helping you build a solid relationship."
Ron L. Deal, President, Successful Stepfamilies
From the Couple Checkup Research Team comes a book and online profile that identifies your couple strengths in order to help you build a more vital relationship.
Based on an unprecedented national survey of 50,000 marriages, The Couple Checkup: Find Your Relationship Strengths presents the principles for creating a successful couple relationship. Purchase of the book includes a free individual profile which includes an assessment of your relationship across fifteen to twenty categories that are customized based on the couple's relationship stage (whether dating, engaged, or married), their age, and whether or not children are involved. The book and profile also include the SCOPE Personality Profile and the Couple and Family Map of your relationship. Find your strengths and learn how you can develop more intimacy.
Each chapter of the book matches a category in the free individual profile. While the book stands on its own, using the Couple Checkup with the book provides the maximum benefit. In addition, each chapter contains couple exercises to help build couple strengths in a variety of areas. Buy the book then take the online Couple Checkup inventory here.
Hardcover (2008), 240 pages from Thomas Nelson. Free individual Couple Checkup voucher code included with the book (the other partner can then take the profile for $15 giving you a full couple profile).
