Building a Great Marriage

Do you remember those grand hopes you had for your marriage? Don’t throw them away too quickly. God uses these hopes to inspire us to have great marriages!


If our marriages are carefully built according to the design of our Maker, then these strong foundations will enable us to build elegant and glorious unions. Building a Great Marriage! focuses around three important building blocks for a great marriage: faith, forgiveness and friendship. 


Faith, chapters 1-4, enables us to gain God’s view of marriage. This is where we learn His design for marriage and how it operates. Forgiveness, chapters 5-7, gently shows us how to restore broken marriages and relationships so that a couple can then build upon God’s design. Friendship, chapters 8-10, describes the pathway of a beautiful and intimate marriage. 


Linda and I have not been able to have many of those romantic get-a-ways while homeschooling our eight children and involved in busy ministries! Instead, we show how biblical truths are practically worked out in our normal, busy and often difficult situations. Building a Great Marriage! along with its study questions provides what couples need to know to understand and live out those great marriages. 


God has seeded those high hopes into our hearts so that marriages would grow, thrive and reflect His glorious ways. Should we not turn to Him and His Word for obtaining those rich, intimate and beautiful marriages, all built on His intricate design? Let’s now turn and together build those great marriages.
