Sacred Marriage: What If God Designed Marriage to Make Us Holy More Than to Make Us Happy? (Paperback)

What if God’s primary intent for your marriage isn’t to make you happy—but holy? And what if your relationship isn’t as much about you and your spouse as it is about you and your God? Your marriage is more than a sacred covenant with another person. It is a spiritual discipline designed to help you know God better, trust him more fully, and love him more deeply.

Sacred Marriage may very well alter profoundly the contours of your marriage. It will most certainly change you. Because whether it is delightful or difficult, your marriage can become a doorway to a closer walk with God, and to a spiritual integrity that, like salt, seasons the world around you with the savor of Christ. Now includes discussion and reflection questions for each chapter.
