Product Description
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 like 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 pleased . . . but holy? And what if your relationship isn-t as much about you and your spouse as it is about you and God? Everything about your marriage–everything–is filled with prophetic potential, with the capacity for learning and revealing Christ-s character. The respect you accord your partner; the forgiveness you humbly seek and graciously extend; the seventh heaven, awe, and sheer fun of lovemaking; the history you and your spouse erect with one another–in these and additional facets of your marriage, Sacred Marriage uncovers the mystery of God-s overarching purpose.This book may very well alter very much the contours of your marriage. It will most certainly change you. Because whether it is delightful or hard, 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.

I became a Christian just a few years ago after a strong dissatisfaction with Catholicism. I held lifelong fears and anxieties about marriage–I thought it was an institution to condemn women–but I thought this was an appealing approach to the theme so I selected up the book. Thanks to the leader, I now feel worse. Not only is the book perpetuating the rampant prejudice that exists in the church but every “Christian man” he talks about is a misogynist. The book itself is nothing but his bickers about his wife’s “girlie problems” and he tries to-stupidly- generalize the experiences of all women. He even flat out declares that the genders are not and will never be equals! He also makes the idiot mistake of thinking motherhood is a peachy-keen walk in the park. This book went in the trash. God forbid I ever end up with a man like that–I’d rather stay single and go back to being secular where people are really embracing the notion that men are supposed to be a part of the child rearing process (gasp!).

This book has a fantastic thought. God made marraige to help us grow as Christians even if it is painful and hard. So Practice your Christian values in your marraige. It is the best place to grow toward Christ. I just saved you from reading a long dull book where he goes on and on and on and on and on!! Save your money.

I guess I have to be devil’s advocate, but this book to me was just so drab. I only read half of it because I couldn’t get through how the leader just kept adage the same things over and over. And the chapter about finding God in sex was “too heavenly minded for any worldly excellent”. If you are a new Christian or an engaged Christian, you might find it insightful.

We embarked on this book in a tiny group of 20-and-30-something married couples with kids. We are all Christians and have strong marriages. We were looking for a book to further explore the two together and help us grow in each path. This isn’t the book to do that.
Thomas seems stuck on marriage being a chore, and focusing in on how you have to pull up persons bootstraps, and like the unlovable – including your spouse. For persons in a very terrible place, this book probably offers some fantastic advice to “keep on keeping on” and get through the hurdles, like your spouse, make it work, yadda yadda yadda. But, to most of us in our group, we establish it to be written from only the perspective of a horrible marriage in which people are not treating each additional well.
We dropped the book after several chapters. Yes, we see the tiny value the book has to offer, and yes, I’ll bet if you read the whole thing, you can find some lovely snippets of insight. Sorry, not interested in investing the time to read through the rest of the this. I’d rather find an uplifting book, and focus on that. What a painful several weeks this has been digesting this writing. Excellent riddance!!

My spouse and I read through most of this book last winter. The main theme/point running through the book is that marriage is a form of martyrdom a cross of suffering. Which if you hang in there will hone the couples Christian characters into something gorgeous. I am sure his wife gets the warm fuzzies every time she thinks about how its such a sacred pain to be with her,that he stays because it makes him feel more righteous and pure due to all the suffering he goes through being married to her.
