The Grace Marriage: How the Gospel and Intentionality Transform Your Relationship

By Marilyn Rhoads and Brad Rhoads

Book Overview

We live in a performance-based world--but happy and hope-filled marriages thrive on grace.

Marriage was God's idea, so we know He designed it to be very, very good. But why do most marriages look disengaged, unappealing, or at best a bit stagnant?

For Brad and Marilyn, "the honeymoon was over before the honeymoon was even over." Both found themselves disillusioned and disappointed. In The Grace Marriage, the authors share how a revelation of God's grace and fresh conviction of the need for intentional investment transformed their hearts and relationship.

What does a grace marriage look like? This book invites couples to explore:

Grace and IdentityGrace in the Day-to-DayGrace in CrisisGrace and CommunicationGrace and SexGrace and Money . . . and more.

Choosing to show your spouse the same grace Christ has showed you liberates you to walk in freedom and fullness of joy. If you want your marriage to reflect the vibrancy, creativity, and oneness God intends, you must show proactive, ongoing investment.

This book is an essential resource for couples who desire to thrive--not just survive--and who want a marriage that showcases the grace of God to the watching world.

Finished it in 2 days!! Excellent!!

Y'all, I have read a lot of marriage books over the last 20 years for my own marriage and in counseling premarital, crisis counseling.....This book is essential! We're such a performance-minded culture and we don't realize how it destroys our relationships. The Gospel changes everything, including how we relate to God and to each other. Awesome marriages are the by-product of living out the gospel in daily life.
