Book excerpt: In the contemporary world, where Christians are a minority in their populations, 'mixed marriages' have become an increasing and increasingly important phenomenon. There are many books written on married and family life for Catholics married to Catholics. But for Catholics married to Christians of other churches? For Catholics married to members of other faiths. For Catholics married to partners of no religious faith? Anita Dowsing writes with great perception of the rewards as well as the difficulties and challenges that such a marriage can bring - of how mutual love between partners, and mutual respect for each other's position, can deepen not only the marriage itself, but the Catholic partner's own faith. This book will bring new hope and insight to many in the same or a similar situation, to marriage counsellors, and to pastoral clergy.
