"Lord, here am I. Change him."
"God, I'm trying. She started it."
These are common claims, but they're so far from what a Christian marriage should be. We invoke Christ at the wedding but then seem to default to an alien theology all too quickly afterward. In this simple and practical book, Doug Wilson offers a richer and comprehensive theology of marriage. Marriage is intended to be a glorious picture of the gospel, and marriages grounded elsewhere regularly create a small hell on earth. In this book he covers headship and submission (and their counterfeits), communication, jealousy, divorce, forgiveness, growing old together, and widowhood.
