Sacred Married

Sacred Marriage offers a great challenge to our typically flawed paradigm for the purpose of marriage. Even though it might be a little challenging read for younger, engaged couples; I think such couples would be blessed to address the question asked.

must read for everybody

This book was recommended to be by a married person (I am single) and it was VERY applicalbe to my life as a single. Not only did it open my eyes to the reality of marriage and how much one needs to die to self in marriage but I could also apply the same dying to self concepts with my friends and roommates. I would reccommend this book to anyone.

Sacred Companions

God made marriage to make us holy, not to make us happy. In his compelling style, Gary Thomas consistently communicates that one marriage-altering message.

As a marriage counselor, seminary professor, and writer of books on the spiritual life, I find far too many Christian books on marriage shallow, surface, and simple. Their solution-focused answers to self-centered questions often do more harm than good as they create more self-sufficient, self-centered sinners.

"Sacred Marriage" does a 180, putting the sacredness back in marriage. God intended marital love to mirror the love relationship between Christ and the Church. Further, God intends our marriages to be a spiritual discipline of spiritual friendship encouraging one another toward communion with Christ and conformity to Christ.

In the able hands and from the artful pen of Thomas, couples learn the most fulfilling message about marriage--together you have the capacity for sacredness, for a God-honoring, other-empowering, self-sacrificing purpose that brings joy now and impact forever.

Thought Provoking

The officiant of our wedding wanted my fiance and I to read this as part of our counseling. It was fantastic. It really taught us the importance of serving and how to serve each other. It has a unique view that is very biblical, and not at all dominering towards women!
