"Lord, here am I. Change him." "God, I'm trying. She started it." Common claims but they're so far from what a Christian marriage should look like. We invoke Christ at the wedding then seem to default to an alien theology afterward.
In this simple and practical book, Doug Wilson offers a richer and more comprehensive theology of marriage than in his prior works. 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, submission (and their counterfeits), communication, jealousy, divorce, forgiveness, growing old together, and widowhood.
