coworkers’ lives. Because of it, some of us wait to marry. Others of us run to <strong>marriage</strong><br />
at the first chance we get with a revolutionary’s fist in the air. Yet, none of us truly<br />
know what this enigmatic relationship will ask of us.<br />
I began a larger conversation about <strong>marriage</strong> among Millennials over a year ago on<br />
several platforms online. From the feedback, its clear that most young people—myself<br />
included—have a learning curve early in <strong>marriage</strong>.<br />
Some of us may have had some help from parents or books. But we’ve all been raised<br />
in a time and culture that hand us counter-productive mentalities and misguided<br />
expectations that don’t exactly set us up well for true love.<br />
So.<br />
Perhaps that’s why we’re here—now—together. It’s a sort of collective recognition that:<br />
“Marriage is beautiful, but unnatural...worth it, but challenging.<br />
And I, like many, could use a little help in navigating.”<br />
I’ve written a book about my journey of dismantling these modern misconceptions,<br />
mentalities, and expectations I brought to <strong>marriage</strong> called Marriage Rebranded. In<br />
the process of writing it, I met some of the more amazing individuals who offered<br />
priceless insight into <strong>marriage</strong>. This eBook is an attempt to collect all their wisdom in<br />
one place.<br />
Over the past two years, I’ve reached out to these experts, counselors, best-selling<br />
authors, and/or relational veterans for one piece of <strong>marriage</strong> advice for young people<br />
today—be it practical or conceptual. And the level of insight and wisdom that has<br />
come pouring in has been overwhelming.<br />
If <strong>marriage</strong> is hard for you at the moment, I hope this eBook simply comforts you to<br />
know you’re not alone.<br />
If <strong>marriage</strong> is amazing and fruitful, may it help you sustain.<br />
If <strong>marriage</strong> is confusing, may it offer some insight on this unique union.<br />
