SynopsisWhat if God designed marriage to make us holy more than to make us happy? By popular demand, the author of Sacred Marriage returns to the topic of how God uses marriage to expand our souls and make us holy. With all new material, Devotions for a Sacred Marriage explores how God can reveal himself to you through your marriage and help you grow closer to him as well as to your spouse. Fifty-two devotions encourage you to build your marriage around God's priorities. From learning to live with a fellow sinner, to the process of two becoming one, to sharing our lives as brothers and sisters in Christ, Devotions for a Sacred Marriage challenges couples to embrace the profound and soul-stretching reality of Christian marriage., This book of fifty-two devotionals is a companion to Gary Thomas's Sacred Marriage, which enables couples to think and act upon the premise: What if God designed marriage to make us holy more than to make us happy?

Gospel centered, and sweet devotional
I wasn't sure when I bought it if it would be a real gospel centered book. It is. It brings up good talking points and things to ponder with your significant other. The devotion we went over last night was titled, "God's son, God's daughter". The pastor compared how if we want to be on his good side, treat his kids well, but if you want to make him mad, mistreat or bully his kids. He then compared it (though on a much larger scale, as God's love is so great) to how God wants us to treat our significant other, how His child ought to be treated -and as someone made in His image. There aren't really questions at the end; it's more for discussion, and to make you think, and also think of things to pray on. It's a very sweet, well written devotional, that is not over whelming, but gently nudges you closer to your spouse.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Marriage Enrichment
We had a couples' retreat where this book was the basis of our teachings. It was so rich and full of great advice, that I ordered several to give to friends. I can promise this book will enrich any marriage, but especially a Christian one.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

LOVE IT!
We enjoyed this devotional so much that we read it every day instead of every week. We also bought 7 copies and shared with family and friends. This is not your typical devotional with weak 'fillers' to stretch out the book. It's very enlightening and gave both me and my husband a lot to consider, discuss, and change in our marriage. It's so far, the best devotional we've ever read.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
