Excerpt
There are questions for husbands, wives, and both as a couple:
Husband: What are three ways your wife makes you feel respected? Disrespected
Wife: Second only to Christ, do you feel like the supreme relationship in your husband's life? Why or why not?
Husband: When your wife is suffering, do you feel like she takes it out on you like Rachel did with Jacob (Genesis 30:1)?
Wife: What can your husband do to help you more easily resist the temptation to nag him?
Both: What do we have in our home that threatens our holiness, and how do we remove it?
Professional Reviews
Tedd Tripp—Husband of forty-eight years, pastor, speaker, and author of Shepherding a Child’s Heart
“Marriage God’s Way is a thorough and comprehensive treatment of marriage. The reader who works his way through this volume will be richly rewarded.”
Scott T. Brown—Husband of thirty-one years, director of the National Center for Family-Integrated Churches, pastor, speaker, and author of A Theology of the Family
“Most Christian books on marriage today don’t have much Scripture in them. Not this one. It is saturated with the Word of God. If you want a book that is built on the foundation of exposition of Scripture, this book is for you. While Scott offers many practical insights, they are all grounded in the biblical text using biblical language. Marriage God’s Way will fill your mind with the pure and perfect Word of God. This is what every marriage needs.”
Reb Bradley—Husband of thirty-eight years, pastor, speaker, founder of Family Ministries, and author of Child Training Tips
“With the divorce rate for believers lagging just behind that of unbelievers, there is no shortage of Christian books on marriage. Unfortunately, few of these books offer lasting effectiveness, because they lack the authority and wisdom of Scripture. Most merely weave together tidbits of human wisdom and pop ideas spiced up with random verses. Pastor Scott understands that strong marriages need more than tidbits of wisdom and pop ideas. He knows that as the Designer of marriage, God gave us His Word as an owner's manual. Therefore, in Marriage God’s Way, Scott draws upon the authority and wisdom of the Bible to help every couple find the passion, intimacy, and romance that God intended.”
