Synopsis

According to Barna Research Group, 33 percent of Christian marriages end in divorce. Many divorced Christians ask if there is any hope of building a unified marriage in the future. "The Blended Marriage" teaches that even in second or third marriages, couples can overcome past hurts and issues and connect to one another in love. This Bible study will provide guidance on how to create one united family and can be used for couples' counseling for couples on their own. This is the perfect resource for couples who are starting over!

From the Back Cover

Can You Maintain Unity in Your Blended Relationship?

Bringing two families together in matrimony can be joyful, and yet chaotic, too. In The Blended Marriage, find out how keeping Christ at the center of your relationship will help you navigate the unexpected twists and turns of remarriage. You will learn to rely on God's strength and wisdom to recognize God's role in bringing you and your spouse together and his plan for your marriage, and discover the importance of making faith in God's grace key in your life. This study contains four sessions, each with four main components:
 
Tilling the Ground
Planting the Seed
Watering the Hope
Harvesting the Fruit

All new relationships face hurdles, but with Christ at the helm, you can rise above challenges in your beautifully blended marriage.
