Incredibly rich with wisdom and insight that will leave the
reader, whether single or married, feeling uplifted.”The
Washington Times
Based on the acclaimed sermon series by New York Times
bestselling author Timothy Keller, this book shows
everyoneChristians, skeptics, singles, longtime married couples,
and those about to be engagedthe vision of what marriage should
be according to the Bible.
Modern culture would have you believe that everyone has a soul
mate; that romance is the most important part of a successful
marriage; that your spouse is there to help you realize your
potential; that marriage does not mean forever, but merely for
now; and that starting over after a divorce is the best solution
to seemingly intractable marriage issues. But these modern-day
assumptions are wrong. Timothy Keller, with insights from Kathy,
his wife of thirty-seven years, shows marriage to be a glorious
relationship that is also misunderstood and mysterious. The
Meaning of Marriage offers instruction on how to have a
successful marriage, and is essential reading for anyone who
wants to know God and love more deeply in this life.
