Review & Giveaway: Team Us
About the book:
176 pages / Forward by Dr. Gary Chapman (author of 5 Love Languages)
What are you agreeing to when you say “I do”? When a couple promises “I do,” they agree to more than just a shared last name, a joint bank account, and no more dateless nights. This husband and wife duo forms a new team. “Life together” becomes their mantra. Nothing can come between them. At least, that’s the plan. But then real life sets in. With it come disappointments and frustrations. If the couple isn’t intentional in their day-to-day interactions, that once enthusiastic “we” can slowly revert to “you” and “me.” Before long, the couple’s left wondering what happened to their team spirit.
Team Us: Marriage Together offers couples practical ways to cultivate and strengthen unity in their marriages. Author Ashleigh Slater shares from her own marriage as she presents couples with realistic ideas on how to foster cooperation, deepen commitment, and exercise grace on a daily basis.
“Finishing your marriage story well is definitely within your reach, no matter what your history tells you.”

I have to say, I really am enjoying this book. Jamie and I are reading it together, he read the first few chapters over the phone to me, now I am reading the next few to him while he's visiting us. We love her sense of humor and the input from Ashleigh's husband Ted in the "Ted says" bubbles. They don't paint a picture perfect marriage, they paint a picture of reality and offer tips encouraging couples to team up the way God intended us to. Our favorite chapter so far is "Grace like Sweeping", being Canadian, curling is a sport that everyone is familiar with...so we thoroughly enjoyed her analogy of marriage being a bit like curling. If you need some encouragement and pointers (who doesn't?!) then I highly recommend this book!! And here is a chance to win a copy of the book!!!
