After years of counseling engaged and married couples, the Rienow's realized that most Christian couples did not have a biblical mission and purpose for their family. The couples had learned some things about communication, sexuality, and conflict resolution. But they didn't know WHY God had brought them together! Visionary Marriage will reveal that God does have a plan and a purpose for marriage and family in the Bible. The focus is on the big-picture purpose for marriage, and the goal of being successful once understanding the purpose.

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.

Grounded in multi-generational stories from Kinmen in Taiwan, Visions of Marriage explores the historical entanglements between the pursuit of new personal and national futures. Focusing on the relational and future-making aspects of marriage, the ethnography highlights the intersection of transformations across familial generations and shifting political economies in Taiwan, and more globally. While theories of modernity often treat marriage as an index of social change, without adequate attention to its transformative capacities generated through personal and familial agency, this volume provides comparative insights on family change and demographic shifts in Asia.

There is no doubt that the marriage institution has been disrupted in many ways. Infidelity, divorce, domestic violence, and same-sex marriage are some of the visible signs. However, the human and economic tolls arising from this disruption go far beyond what we can readily see. You have probably read or heard all the things the Bible says about marriage; you still remember all the things your parents or your pastor told you about marriage, and maybe, you have also tried out some of the recipes for a happy and successful marriage. Most of what has been written and said about marriage come from good husbands and good wives who are happily married and are too careful to rock the boat. They keep to the beaten track even when it is obvious that things are not working according to the general prescriptions and assumptions. Now, what about those things you have never heard? I mean those things that could contradict some of your cherished doctrines and beliefs? Yes, you believe in marriage vows, you believe in one manone wife marriages; perhaps, you were also given a set of rules on love, submission in marriage, or the formula for a successful marriage. You were probably told the type of people you should marry and those you should notbased on their backgrounds. Maybe you know nothing at all about all these. Never mind! Nothing will shield you from the vicissitudes of marriage; there is no absolute guarantee against failure. But you can reduce your odds of failure by acting consciously and proactively, and by taking your time to find out and understand who you are, your purpose and vision in life, before making the strategic decision of who to marry. What is the goal of marriage? And how do the requirements for running a successful business differ from those of having a successful marriage? This book is an attempt to develop a general framework for marriage based on proven business principles and guided by scriptural precepts. The central theme in this book is that marriage should be approached as a strategy for achieving a larger goala means to an end and not an end in itself. And since the success of any strategy depends on two key factorsplanning and executionthe materials in this book can be classified into two broad categories, namely, planning and execution of marriage as a strategy. However, the book comes with some curious icing on the cake: Every love is driven by need, and love that is devoid of attraction is nothing but kindness. Love, though necessary, is not a sufficient condition for marriage. Infidelity is a liberal ground for divorce when compared to some of the evils plaguing marriages in our society today. Adultery is not extramarital affair. Wedding vows make a deity of marriage and invalidates Gods divine grace on marriage. There is nothing sinful about polygamy, and there is no virtue or holiness in celibacy. If you are tired of reading marriage cookbooks written by good husbands and good wives and their hunky-dory marriages, then you will find this book a welcome break. However, the book could set husbands against their wives and wives against husbands, but it has a higher potential to unite sincere husbands and wives around a common vision that can bring lasting happiness and fulfillment to their marriages.

Discover your purpose for life, and do it deliberately. Often times we get a vision or a thought in our minds that won't go away. Without the know-how of bringing that vision full circle, it lays by the way side. This is similar to what happens when a crush stays incubated in a shy mind. You walk away without finding out where that road would have led you. I call that the coulda-shoulda-woulda syndrome. It is said the only sin in failing is if you never tried. I implore you through the tools shared in Marrying Your Vision to take an internal inventory of where you are as it compares to where you know/dream you should be. As you turn the pages, you will see the correlation between the stages leading up to marraige, and the process involved in developing the vision God has whispered to you. Focus on each of the four levels as if your life depended on it...because your bloodline actually does.

This marriage series is focused on a 2020 vision of the past, present and future ramifications of marriage and family in Christian living. Faith is emphasized in order to help the readers gain a greater understanding of the precepts that lead to a stronger marriage. The principles used in this outline are applied to make it real as it relates to the husband and wife, siblings, parents and children and how they all relate. The authors bring nearly 50 years of experience living and participating in an active role of Christian development in marriage. There are many discussions, questions and activities which may or may not be gender specific that relate to scripture. This series may lead to questions with contrasting viewpoints that will contribute to a broader, more insightful way of thinking of how we view ourselves as Christians in marriage. The entire series is written with the understanding that prayer in all topics and issues presented is all encompassing and is the first and last option to the success of all elements of marriage and family.

Timothy and Kathy Keller will show you a portrait of marriage as it's meant to be according to the Bible...by first throwing out most of what we've been taught about love. Modern culture would have you believe that everyone has a soul mate; that romance is the most important part of a successful marriage; that marriage does not mean 'til death do us part, but merely for as long as my needs are being met; and that when serious differences arise, divorce is the best solution. But all of these modern-day assumptions miss what marriage is really about. In this six-session video-based Bible study (DVD/digital video sold separately), Timothy Keller, along with Kathy, his wife of forty years, draws a profound portrait of marriage from the pages of Scripture that neither idealizes nor rejects the institution but points us back to the relationship between God and man. The result is a vision for marriage that is refreshingly frank and unsentimental, yet hopeful and beautiful. This study is for anyone from singles to couples considering marriage to those who have been married for any length of time. Sessions include: Service: Marriage Isn't about You Covenant: Created to Make Promises Roles: Loving through Mutual Submission Singleness: Strengthening the Spiritual Family Sex: The Act of Covenant Renewal Hope: Seeing the Great Horizon Designed for use with The Meaning of Marriage Video Study (sold separately).

Oneness introduces Jesus' vision of deep union between husband and wife-a vision that can become a guiding light for every couple working through issues and trying to deepen their love for each other. The book begins with the words of Jesus, moves backward and forward in the Bible from Genesis to Ephesians, and expands outward to explore the mysteries of marriage like friendship, mutual subordination, sexuality and loving cooperation. What does it mean to become one in marriage? What are the paths to this sometimes seemingly distant goal? To answer these questions, the Perrottas combine a careful, practical, and at times moving exploration of the biblical foundations of Christian marriage with helpful and humorous insights from their own improbable union. Their experiences and those of other couples highlight the joys, struggles, and surprises of Christ's call to discipleship within marriage, letting readers see the blessings and challenges of this wonderful vocation-and the divine help available for it. A study guide, "Pray, Talk, Act," helps readers use the book to probe their own marriage and consider the value and implications of Jesus vision of marriage for themselves. The questions aid readers in seeing how Jesus' vision of oneness can become a reality in their own lives. For any couple wanting to focus on their relationship, Oneness provides help for exploring vision and goals and examining the texture of their relationship. And the book can of practical interest also to who are engaged or anyone thinking of marriage. Those who counsel married couples or mentor the engaged will find Oneness a thought provoking resource. Written from the Catholic perspective, Oneness is for all Christians. Kevin and Louise Perrotta have written numerous books and articles on Scripture, saints, and Christian living. They live in Ann Arbor, Michigan, not far from children, grandchildren, and even some great-grand-children.

Ryan and Selena Frederick were newlyweds when they landed in Switzerland to pursue Selena's dream of training horses. Neither of them knew at the time that Ryan was living out a death sentence brought on by a worsening genetic heart defect. Soon it became clear he needed major surgery that could either save his life--or result in his death on the operating table. The young couple prepared for the worst. When Ryan survived, they both realized that they still had a future together. But the near loss changed the way they saw all that would lie ahead. They would live and love fiercely, fighting for each other and for a Christ-centered marriage, every step of the way. Fierce Marriage is their story, but more than that, it is a call for married couples to put God first in their relationship, to measure everything they do and say to each other against what Christ did for them, and to see marriage not just as a relationship they should try to keep healthy but also as one worth fighting for in every situation. With the gospel as their foundation, Ryan and Selena offer hope and practical help for common struggles in marriage, including communication problems, sexual frustration, financial stress, family tension, screen-time disconnection, and unrealistic expectations.
