Excellent book on the purpose of marriage, written from a christian perspective! December 28, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The book gave me great clarity and insights into the true purpose of marriage. Also, the author doesn't sugar coat the realities of marriage, but rather pulls no punches in saying that yes, marriage can and will be difficult at times. But when it's centered on God, it serves to sanctify each partner and make them more Christ-like. What could be better than that?! After reading this book, my view of marriage has changed. I now have a better understanding of its importance and true purpose.
One of the best books on Christian marriage November 21, 2007

I have read a lot of books on marriage, and this is one of the best. One of the main things I like about it is that he looks at what a Christian marriage relationship should be, and shows how those things that we are to do and to be are things which are necessary parts of being more Christ-like. It's not a book of ideas like "have a date night every week", but just focuses on how having the right kind of attitude in marriage can bring you closer to the holiness that God desires of you.

A Call to Holiness October 4, 2007
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
The great thing about this book is that it specifically addresses some common areas that all married couples are likely to struggle with, but it ties them back to the Bible and the call for all of us to lead holy lives. The Bible doesn't say, "Be holy if your spouse is holy," but God says, "Be holy because I am holy." It is the relationship with God that is central. We are called to be ever seeking to emulate Christ, and the marriage relationship gives us plenty of opportunity! Now, of course if you are in an abusive relationship, use appropriate judgement, but if you are finding yourself in a dissatisfying marriage for other reasons, remember that instead of changing your spouse, the place to begin is with YOURSELF! God bless!
instructions we must understand and obey September 8, 2007
3 out of 6 found this review helpful
For men: page 41 reminds us that Jesus told us to love our enemies. A man who does not love (seek what is good for) his wife is a man who does not act like a Christian.
For women: page 43 says A wife who plans an unforgettable sexual experience for her husband is serving God.
