ReviewsWarning! Reading this book will prick your conscience! The Verret's do an excellent job convincing readers that once they get involved doing marriage preparation, their own marriages will be transformed. Marriage mentors are needed today more than ever. Nobody likes to hear the staggering percentages of failed marriages. You can make a difference. You can help save marriages. If you don't believe me, read Witness to Love. --Father John Paul Mary Zeller, MFVA, Franciscan Missionaries of the Eternal Word, Irondale, Alabama, There is a gaping hole at the heart of marriage and family today. Mary Rose and Ryan Verret offer not just a soothing and healing balm, but a transformational one. This book is the practical strategy parishes have been looking and waiting for. Use it well, best with some time in front of the Blessed Sacrament. --Kathryn Jean Lopez, Editor-at-Large, National Review Online, In this ground-breaking book, Ryan and Mary-Rose Verret share hard-won insights drawn from years of personal experience ministering to engaged and newly-married couples. Many young couples today are children of divorce who have a deep-seated fear that their own relationships will end up in disaster. They may decide to cohabit or postpone marriage. Yet they long for faith-filled couples who will walk with them side-by-side, mentoring them along the path of a truly transformative Christian marriage. This book is for those who, though their own marriage is not perfect, are willing to consider how intentional mentoring can be a source of light and comfort to couples considering marriage or just starting out. The "mentorless generation" does not need more social media examples of perfectly fake lives; they need signs and witnesses of hope, practical support, and a real community of committed Christian couples. This book will help you get started as a mentor couple, as a couple who is willing to share as Saint Peter tells us, the reason for our hope. -Art and Laraine Bennett, authors of The Temperament God Gave You (Sophia Institute Press 2005), The Temperament God Gave Your Spouse (Sophia Institute Press 2008) The Temperament God Gave Your Kids (Our Sunday Visitor 2012), A Year of Grace (Our Sunday Visitor 2014), and The Emotions God Gave You (Word Among Us Press 2011)., In this ground-breaking book, Ryan and Mary-Rose Verret share hard-won insights drawn from years of personal experience ministering to engaged and newly-married couples.

I believe we will only find lasting peace and growth within our "domestic churches" when we learn to emulate the love of Christ for his Church. The beautiful resource "Witness to Love " by Ryan and Mary-Rose Verret takes a huge step forward in personalizing marriage mentorship for young couples. This book has the power to touch not only young marriages, but also those of the mentor couples who willingly open themselves to God's grace working in and through them.
