Product Overview

Although this book's controversial contention that marriage is an unbreakable bond for life gets the most attention today...the book is a mainly positive explanation and application of the Bible s teaching about marriage in all of marriage's aspects...Marriage...is a Reformed pastor's instruction and exhortation to married couples, especially young married couples, with the purpose that they glorify God in their marriages and enjoy the bliss of this blessed communion of life.

The timeliness of the book is evident simply from the rate of divorce, not alone in North America in the early twenty-first century, but also in Reformed churches throughout the world...

The second section is a history of the church s doctrine and practice of marriage from Augustine and the early church through Calvin and the Reformation to the contemporary chaos.
