What if God designed marriage to make us holy more than to make us happy?

By popular demand, the author of Sacred Marriage returns to the topic of how God uses marriage to expand our souls and make us holy. With all new material, Devotions for a Sacred Marriage explores how God can reveal himself to you through your marriage and help you grow closer to him as well as to your spouse.

Fifty-two devotions encourage you to build your marriage around God’s priorities. From learning to live with a fellow sinner, to the process of two becoming one, to sharing our lives as brothers and sisters in Christ, Devotions for a Sacred Marriage challenges couples to embrace the profound and soul-stretching reality of Christian marriage.

Quotes

  • Nella Bellahas quoted4 years ago
    different. That’s what gives glory to God. That’s what helps us appreciate God’s love for us, because God loves us“anyway.” He loved us when we rebelled against him. He keeps loving us when we continue to sin against him. He gives and gives—and we take him for granted, the height of ungratefulness. He is eager to meet with us, and we get too busy to slow down and notice him. He is good to us, and we accuse him mercilessly when every little thing doesn’t go just the way we planned it; in other words, we can be wicked.
    But God loves us anyway. To love anyway is to love like God and to learn about God’s love for us, who loves the “ungrateful and wicked.”
    That’s love, Jesus style.
    Let’s love like that

    If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even‘sinners’ love those who love them. And if you do good to those who aregood to you, what credit is that to you? Even ‘sinners’ do that. And ifyou lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is thatto you? Even ‘sinners’ lend to ‘sinners, ’ expecting to be repaid in full.But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them withoutexpecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, andyou will be sons of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungratefuland wicked. Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.”
    Luke 6:32–36
