“Incredibly rich with wisdom and insight that will leave the reader, whether single or married, feeling uplifted.” — The Washington Times
Based on the acclaimed sermon series by New York Times bestselling author Timothy Keller, this book presents a biblical vision of what marriage should be. It speaks to everyone—Christians, skeptics, singles, longtime married couples, and those about to be engaged.
Modern culture promotes several myths about marriage: that everyone has a soul mate, that romance is the key to a successful marriage, that your spouse is there to help you realize your potential, that marriage is temporary rather than forever, and that divorce is the best solution to difficult marital problems. Timothy Keller, along with insights from his wife Kathy, with whom he has been married for thirty-seven years, challenges these assumptions. He presents marriage as a glorious but misunderstood and mysterious relationship. The Meaning of Marriage offers valuable guidance on how to build a successful marriage and is essential reading for anyone who wants to know God and love more deeply.
