I'm a Christian man and my fiancee is a woman from a Reform Jewish
background. What are the most common problems a Christian/Jewish
marriage will face and should we immediately seek help?

Too often interfaith couples approach marriage minimizing their
differences because it feels so good to be in love. Especially with
the pressures of a wedding approaching, it sometimes seems best
to sweep differences under the rug in the hope that "We can just
make it through the wedding." This is often a big mistake. I think
of the period between engagement and ceremony as the "escrow period"
of love. It's stressful, but there is no better time to face your
differences. Most importantly, clarify confusion and mixed feelings
about your own religious background before you try to work things
out with your partner. And yes, finding a counselor to help you
work through these issues can be the best relationship insurance.
