Summary: An Awesome Book to begin the journey
Comment: I usually avoid marriage books on every occasion, and this one was no different. However, I did pick it up a number of months ago, and after reading the first few chapters, I put it down, realizing that I needed to read it with my wife. This didn't happen, of course, until about six weeks ago, when we needed some counsel on some trying areas of our marriage. I mentioned that I had this book at work, and when I brought it home, I read it together with my wife, and I'll tell you this...it has changed my thinking.
Gary Thomas doesn't pussy-foot around, and if you're looking for the quick fix, this isn't it, but he brings it down to earth with his own personal stories and reflections, as well as research from many of the classic Christian traditions, as well as folks he's counseled with. Being a marriage counselor himself, he looks at himself first before taking on a challenge, and this book was a tremendous challenge. It is provocative and admirable, and I'd highly recommend it to anyone who is willing to change and begin the journey. Maybe I should give it ten stars instead of five!!!

Summary: For every Christian couple
Comment: This is a book that every Christian couple ought to read. If the Church would see marriage as a context for worshiping God and growing in Christ, our witness to the world would be strengthened powerfully. It's a well-written book. Not pie in the sky, but practical and helpful and inspiring. I wish I had known about it sooner; I've been recommending it ever since I read it last month (August 2003). Sarah Sumner, author of Men and Women in the Church.

Summary: Think differently, and grow spiritually through marriage!
Comment: I always thought the "best" Christians were monks and nuns, but this book shows that most of the church has been married through the ages, and was more successful at it than we are now! Gary shows how marriage can be a tool for spiritual growth, and a spiritual discipline. He talks about how Christian marriage has the opportunity to be a witness to the rest of the world - but only if we take it seriously and engage with another person more deeply than we ever will with anyone else. I struggle with some aspects of my marriage, but this book put it in a lifetime perspective, and a Godly perspective. I'm giving it as a present at every wedding I go to from now on!
