My Review:
Team Us stresses the importance of a couple being on the same team. And while that might seems like a fairly simple thing, it is much easier said than done.
In this book Ashleigh takes about the obstacles to building a solid team, using stories and tips from her own marriage. From resolving conflicts, finding joy, building the team, dealing with loss, and family, Ashleigh and Ted talk about staying strong and having each other's back through the good times and the bad.
Overall, this book is one that is designed to be for engaged or newly married couples. A great book to read together when preparing for marriage. I'll be honest, I'm single so this book probably wasn't written for someone like me but I still found it interesting and helpful :)

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. AuthorAshleigh 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.”
