| Abstract
|
:
|
Marriage is a precious gift from God, established to bless us, and ultimately to reflect Christ and the church. Every marriage can truly meet grace and reach this goal when it finds its purpose in God, its hope in the gospel, and its home in the local church. This valuable book -- written for married or engaged couples or those anticipating marriage -- is a biblical introduction to the wonder and adventure of marriage. From the pages of Scripture, instruction in their local church, and their own marriage experience, Gary and Betsy talk about roles in marriage, the why and how of communication, resolving conflict, and enjoying romance and intimacy. - Back cover.

Marriage is a profound and marvelous mystery established by God for his glory-and that is for our good. So many marital relationships never reach their greatest potential because they have the fatal limitation of being focused on one another. When our focus is solely on God, our marriages have the potential to thrive and not merely survive.
