Modern culture would make 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; that starting over after a divorce is the best solution to seemingly intractable marriage issues. All those modern-day assumptions are, in a word, wrong.
Using the Bible as his guide, coupled with insightful commentary from his wife of thirty-six years, Kathy, Timothy Keller shows that God created marriage to bring us closer to him and to bring us more joy in our lives. With a clear-eyed understanding of the Bible, and meaningful instruction on how to have a successful marriage, The Meaning of Marriage is essential reading for anyone who wants to know God and love more deeply in this life. |
 Sacred Marriage
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. Scores of books have been written that offer guidance for building the marriage of your dreams. But 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 God?
Sacred Marriage uncovers the mystery of God’s overarching purpose. This book 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. |
 For Men Only
Do you love and want to please the woman in your life, but just can’t seem to figure her out? That was before For Men Only.
Now at your fingertips is the tool that will unlock the secret to her mysterious ways. Through hundreds of interviews and the results of a scientific national survey of women, this book demonstrates that women are actually not random and that they really can be systematized and “mapped.” |
 For Women Only
What’s going on in a man’s mind? From their early days, every woman has struggled to understand why males behave the way they do.
Even long-married women who think they understand men have only scratched the surface. Beneath a man’s rugged exterioris an even more rugged, unmapped terrain.
What Feldhahn’s research reveals about the inner lives of men will open women’s eyes to what the men in their life—boyfriends, brothers, husbands, and sons—are really thinking and feeling. |
 His Needs Her Needs
Marriage works only when each spouse takes the time to consider the other’s needs and strives to meet them.
In His Needs, Her Needs, Willard Harley identifies the 10 most vital needs of men and women and shows husbands and wives how to satisfy those needs in their spouses.
He provides guidance for becoming irresistible to your spouse and for loving more creatively and sensitively, thereby eliminating the problems that often lead to extramarital affairs. |
 Love and Respect
Cracking the communication code between husband and wife involves understanding one thing: that unconditional respect is as powerful for him as unconditional love is for her. It’s the secret to marriage that every couple seeks, and yet few couples ever find.
Using Dr. Eggerich’s breakthrough techniques, couples nationwide are achieving a brand-new level of intimacy and learning how to: – stop the Crazy Cycle of conflict – initiate the Energizing Cycle of change – enjoy the Rewarded Cycle of new passion. |
 The Five Love Languages
Are you and your spouse speaking the same language?
More often than not, the giver and the receiver express
love in two different ways. This can lead to misunderstanding, quarrels, and even divorce.
Dr. Gary Chapman identifies five basic languages of love and then guides couples towards a better understanding of their unique languages of love.
Learn to speak and understand your mate’s love language, and in no time you will be able to effectively love and truly feel loved in return. |
