- The letter C stands for "Commitment", an essential principle to build a marriage. A couple cannot function effectively without a firm decision to make the relationship last, even, or specially during unfavorable circumstances and turbulent times.
- The letter A stands for "Acceptance", the second most important principle. Without a consistent intent to know each other at a deeper level and to be accepting of one other, the union may erode under the pressure of the partners' criticism and contempt, and ultimately end up in estrangement or even worse, dissolution.
- The letter R is representative of the principle of "Responsibility", where both members take an unwavering stance to take their commitment beyond the circumstantial and whimsical . They strive to provide one another with support, understanding and cooperation. This principle represents the diligent reciprocation and timely tending to each other's needs. It is aimed at achieving emotional intimacy .
- The letter I stands for "Influence", or the opportunity that each partner is given to weigh in the decisions made both, individually and as a couple. Without this, marriages may be lost in a web of frustration, dissatisfaction, and power struggle.
- The letter N, for "Narrative" has to do with the story that the couple has come to identify as its own, as it describes their union and ties together their history.
- Finally, the letter G is indicative of "Grace", the principle of undeserved forgiveness, given with humility and without any expectation of reciprocity. Grace if provided for purpose of preserving or restoring the relationship, rebuilding communication, and maintaining harmony and connection in the marriage.
