Should We Get Engaged?

A Practical Roadmap for Seriously Dating Couples Considering Engagement You love each other—and you’re talking about marriage. But love alone doesn’t answer every question that matters before engagement. Should We Get Engaged? helps seriously dating couples gain clarity before making a lifelong commitment. Drawing on decades of ministry, counseling, and pre-engagement seminars, Bill and Mindy Meier offer a practical roadmap: fifty key questions (plus five for those previously married), each with a short story showing why it matters. You’ll talk through compatibility, communication, family history, future dreams, health, money, and physical and emotional intimacy—so you can uncover assumptions, spot deal-breakers, and move forward with confidence and build stronger foundations together. Bill Meier spent more than forty years as a pastor and later taught pastoral counseling at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. He has a doctorate in marriage and family counseling and, with Mindy, has four married kids and ten grandkids. Mindy Meier spent thirty-two years with InterVarsity Christian Fellowship, including leading Greek InterVarsity. She wrote Sex and Dating, earned a business degree from the University of Illinois, and earned a master’s in counseling from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School.
