Good Book September 6, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book has been very helpful in preparing for my upcoming marriage. Its biggest influence is that it has given me a perspective that I would have never thougth of on my own. That we do marriage "work" for God. Improving our marriages and our own attiudes is a direct reflection on God in our lives. This book is general and broad and does not give enough specifics so I look forward to reading more on the subject. Yet, I do find myself reflecting on several points Thomas makes. I recommend it to anyone wanting to find the correlation between God and marriage.
Best book on marriage August 23, 2007 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I am a pastor, and this is the best book my wife and I have found on what Christian marriage is all about. It is our primary text when counseling engaged couples. We have also used it with small groups. We highly recommend it.
A "Must-Read" book! July 27, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Gary Thomas set out on a mission to teach us about marriage and its implications. Mission accomplished! This book teaches us so much: it teaches us to look at our partners as image-bearers of God; it teaches us, "every difficulty in life is an opportunity for spiritual advancement"; it teaches us, "the more difficult something is, the more spiritually beneficial we will find it to be, as it builds our character." Of course, there is much much more to be mined from this work. I wish I could get the words around how this book will impact how you view marriage... read this book! Apply what it teaches to your heart and marriage, and you will be blessed.
If you are a man (i.e. husband or future husband), I would definitely recommend reading this in conjunction with Bob Lepine's The Christian Husband.
Great book July 23, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
It's probably not fair to review a book I haven't finished yet. But, after reading so many "how-to" type books and going to "how-to" type conferences, it is great to read a book on "why". I highly recommend this book to anyone who is concerned about marriage (their own or someone elses).
Sacred Marriage July 8, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
An excellent marriage relationship book. Whether you are engaged, newly married, or have been married for years, this is a must read. Gary Thomas' spiritual perspective on marriage was what I was looking for. The campanion devotional book is helpful too.
