Grace for Sinners to Love Like Saints

 

Married Christians, and those preparing for marriage, know that they’re sinners—and that their sin threatens God’s great purposes for their union, including mutual support, companionship, and intimacy. But how often do believers recognize that they are also saints, equipped through God’s power to create a healthy, loving marriage?

 

In Gospel-Shaped Marriage, Chad and Emily Van Dixhoorn encourage couples with how Christ calls and enables them to love their spouse. They give a brief assessment of the biblical design for marriage while offering practical, proven advice for husbands and wives. Drawing from Scripture and the writings of Puritan minister William Gouge, their advice also prepares churches, friends, and others to support married couples in their lives.

 

Comprehensive and Theological: Includes a summary of marriage in redemptive history, recommended Bible verses with each chapter, and prayer prompts

Accessible: Offers guidance for singles preparing for marriage, young and mature couples, struggling couples, and those who want to strengthen their relationship

Practical Advice: Written by a pastor and his wife, this concise, easy-to-understand guide includes discussion questions for each chapter.

Endorsements:

  • “You will find this: careful theology, brought to everyday life, with help and advice from Augustine, William Gouge―whom I didn’t know but writes as though he understands modern marriage―and others who thought about these matters long before us, written by a couple whom I deeply respect. Next up for my wife and me: talking about the questions for each chapter.”
