Marriage always involves two flawed people living with each other in a fallen world. Yet many couples say "I do"? with unrealistic expectations, leaving them unprepared for the day-to-day difficulties of married life.
This unique book introduces a biblical and practical approach to dealing with the challenges of marriage that is rooted in God's faithfulness and the Bible's teaching on sin and grace. Outlining six practical commitments that give shape and momentum to a truly healthy and fulfilling union, this redesigned book will equip couples to develop thriving, grace-based marriages in all circumstances and seasons of their relationships.
"Paul Tripp brings many years of counseling, growth as a husband, and deepening discovery of the liberating power of grace to this realistic and challenging guide to God's engagement in redeeming marriages... The Bible's message of the humbling and healing power of Christ's mercy and the powerful presence of his Spirit in our homes comes through loud and clear."
- Dennis E. Johnson, Professor of Practical Theology, Westminster Seminary California
