One of the most striking features of life in the Catholic Church today is the ever-widening gap between its official teaching on marriage and sexual morality and the practice of most of its lay members. The book seeks to bridge this gap in two ways: It considers some of the tacit assumptions about marriage and sexual morality in today's society, since these affect Catholics as much as everybody else. It also considers the Church's teaching in some of these areas and explores new ways of putting it across so that it can make sense to ordinary lay Catholics. In doing so the author draws on contemporary writing as well as bringing her own reflections and experience of living the Church's teaching to bear on the subject. The book is aimed at married couples, those considering marriage as well as clergy and those involved in marriage preparation and counselling. Anita Dowsing was born in Copenhagen in 1944. She was brought up as a member of Denmark's tiny Catholic community, but has spent most of her adult life in the United Kingdom. She has an M.A. in English Language and Literature from Copenhagen University, and a Ph.D. in Old English from the University of Wales. Anita Dowsing has spent most of her working life in Adult Religious Education in the Diocese of East Anglia as Co-ordinator of the Norwich Deanery Team, a member of the Diocesan Religious Education Commission and, currently, the Diocesan Marriage and Family Life Commission. She was a member of the East Anglia Steering Group for the Bishops' Conference of England and Wales 'Listening 2004' project (listening to family experience in every diocese), and was one of the facilitators at the Bishops Conference Working Group which produced resource material on marriage and family life for parish use. She is married with an adult daughter.

These pages were written by one hand and many hearts ... by separated spouses faithful to the sacrament because they are convinced this total gift of self is not an anachronism imposed by the Church to be accepted with patient resignation, but a path of sanctification lived out in the joyous paradox of the Gospel. This book, besides offering numerous points for reflection on the theme of separation, proposes a true and proper path subdivided into stages for groups of people who, living with the suffering of a spouse's separation, wish to remain faithful to the sacrament of their marriage. Among the many suggested prayers and meditations, one in particular, the renewal of the Yes, has captured the attention of many churches both at home and abroad. The "Marriage Vows Renewal," included in the last stage, is promulgated by the Pontifical Council of the Family. The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops published a recommendation for the book on their Marriage Resource Center: "The greatest strength of Campanella's book is her articulation of the vocation of the separated person to live out his or her marriage vows as a particular witness of God's eternal love for fallen humanity, and the practical path she offers to the realization of this call. Although she does not include personal details of her own situation, it is apparent that Campanella has walked this path herself. This imbues a sense of hope and inspiration to the reader."

What is it about The GIFT that makes it worth having and keeping handy for repeated reference? What is it about this book that causes people to refuse to lend it out for fear that they might not get it back? And what is it that inspires people to treat it like an heirloom – not wanting their children to grow up without knowledge of its contents? It has to be about what the book offers between its covers. Very true – so let’s take a brief look at what’s in store for those who are interested in making a sound investment towards something which many individuals out of Christ might consider to be a fantasy, but would like to have their copy anyway (and hold on to it) because they too can benefit tremendously from it. The Gift is based on a practical concept that ultimately becomes a cherished relationship lifestyle; a concept that is so pregnant with marriage-preservation content that those who become impregnated with this concept will make marriage attractive even to many of those who are turned off by it. At the core of this concept is its ultimate destination – the motivation that gives it life and sustained consistency. In its Ultimate Destination the title of the book becomes relevant and becomes the life-blood of the mutual commitment to adhere to the Gold Standard of caring for each other. Then there is GIFT-care: Two hundred and seventy-four recommendations for caring for your marriage (or the one that you will some day have). In this marriage-enrichment book, the Royal status of the born-again individual is brought into focus and its place in marriage enrichment is laid out. This chapter shows disrespect the door. In dealing with the fact of one’s royal status in Christ, this author takes the reader to the core of the fascinating world of authentic Christian Identity and shows how it can and is supposed to impact marriage in the most positive ways. Then there are the responsibilities of Royalty: Here too we are treated to a plethora of potentially life-transforming facts – a transformation that elevates self-concept to new highs and changes the fulfillment zip code of the marriage itself. In this book, the author also deals with the practicality of Royalty. Have you ever wondered how your marriage would be affected if you were to see both yourself and your spouse through the eyes of God? This author takes you there – Don’t miss it. If you and your spouse are both born-again of the Holy Spirit, do you know that to treat each other any less than as Royalty is highly offensive to God? You owe it to yourself, your marriage and your spouse to get this book and see why this is so. Watch your home prosper as you make good use of this information.

In previous books respected New York pastor and bestselling author Timothy Keller has looked at such diverse and topical subjects as the existence of God, our need to do justice, the meaning of Jesus' life, and the human temptation to make idols - all through the twin lenses of a biblical framework and an engagement with contemporary culture. In this new book, co-authored with his wife, Kathy, he turns his attention to that most complex of matters: our need for love, and its expression in marriage. Beginning with the biblical narrative, and its pictures of marriage that span the original ideal to the broken to the redemptive, he looks at themes of friendship and commitment; the completion of men and women in each other; singleness, sex and divorce; and ministry and discipleship within the context of marriage. This is a profound and engaging work that will challenge and inspire people in all stages of life - single, newlywed and married.

The ultimate goal for the Christian life is heaven, but what path should a couple take to get there? Dan and Amber DeMatte, who have worked together in youth and family ministry for more than fifteen years, believe it’s holiness—living as Jesus did. Giving and receiving love and living for the sake of others—especially your spouse and children—will help you achieve holiness, the DeMattes say. You can even find holiness in the everyday tasks of marriage and family life such as doing the dishes, changing diapers, and cleaning up messes. In The Three Secrets to Holiness in Marriage, the DeMattes walk you through a thirty-three -day retreat that culminates in consecrating your marriage to Christ. They will help you achieve perfect love for each other, your family, and God by incorporating the virtues of poverty, chastity, and obedience into your life. This retreat will help you fall deeper in love with Christ, your spouse and children, and the world God calls you to serve. Each chapter includes discussion questions and a prayer for couples.
