ABOUT THE BOOK

More Than Just Planning a Wedding

What comes to mind when you hear the phrase, “preparing for marriage”? Today, many seem to believe it’s the same as making wedding plans. This makes them pay more attention to the glitz and glamour of the reception party, while neglecting the ultimate – building a godly home. 

Getting to the Altar is for every young person who desires to honor God and create a lasting marriage. You’ll learn the nuances of choosing the right partner and the need for God’s guidance. The wisdom in every part of this book will lead you toward finding “the right one” and going from the altar to enjoying a fulfilling union.

The Sacred Blueprint

01. Divine Design & Definition
Marriage did not begin with trends or pressure; it began with God. Since He is the architect, He alone defines how this sacred union should be entered and sustained.

02. Formation Over Feelings
This space addresses what is often skipped in the rush toward the altar. It prioritizes spiritual formation before feelings, wisdom before desire, and preparation before the proposal.

03. Covenant Beyond Fantasy
Covenant cannot be built on fantasy or chemistry alone. What God calls sacred must be approached with reverence and clarity to honor Him at the altar and in life.

Faith · Foundation · Future

Marriage is God's Design Marriage was God's idea. It started with God's plan, not human opinions.

God defined marriage before society and traditions existed. He gave it meaning and purpose from the beginning.

Driven by Divine
Inspiration.

The primary inspiration behind this book is Scripture and the conviction that marriage is God’s idea. Watching many enter marriage unprepared—emotionally, spiritually, and covenantally—created a burden to speak truth with love.

covenantally
The desire was never to condemn, but to prepare, restore, and position God’s people for lasting unions built on truth. This work serves as a guide for those seeking spiritual maturity before reaching the altar.
Built on Truth.

Reader Experience

Pre-marital counseling was a very good experience for us. We learned about our differences and how important communication, listening, and respect are when issues come up. It helped us become a strong team, always putting God before anything.

We’ve now been married for 5 years and we are best friends. He’s my favorite guy and my vacation buddy. He gets on my nerves sometimes, but I wouldn’t change him for anything.

The counseling was very important and very informative, and it truly helped lay a strong foundation for our marriage.
