Inhaltsangabe

This journal was born of love and of a vision: to help couples grow in intimacy. Marriage is hard work, but the rewards — unity and the purposes God ordained for it — are glorious.

Everything here rests on one foundation: the oneness of Christ, husband, and wife. Marriage is meant to reflect the divine order and the great mystery of Christ and His Church — its unity, its beauty, its glory.

A strong marriage strengthens the family, and it requires shepherding: tending our own souls so that we grow as individuals, even as we intertwine our lives with our spouse in pursuit of this great mystery together. Becoming truly one is the work of a lifetime — centering ourselves in God and in each other — and the growing demands, tensions, and pressures on our time make that work more necessary, not less.

We live in a day when this God-ordained institution is under attack from every quarter: from the culture we inhabit, from legal and governmental pressures, from a society intent on redefining it. And there is a more serious threat still — the enemy of our souls, who works from the spiritual realm into the visible, who comes only to steal and kill and destroy, and who would gladly make accusers of us toward one another.

This is why we must be deliberate, and it is the reason for this journal: a weekly space to stop, pause, to turn toward each other, and grow together. May this holy pursuit be a blessed one for you both.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Thank you, too, to the community of faith that walks alongside couples in every season of marriage - the coaches, mentors, therapists, and friends. It may take a village to raise a child, but it takes an army of faithful warriors to stand guard over what God has joined together, that no one may separate or divide.
