Reforming Marriage (2)

One of the main reasons I love this book is that it is theological in nature and not therapeutic. By this I mean that Wilson is calling husbands and wives to a right understanding and practice of marriage, rather than trying to help people cope with the marriage they conceived on their own.

God is Lord. He is central to the coherence of all things, including marriage. He has preeminence over heaven and earth, and all His human creatures have the moral responsibility to acknowledge that preeminence in all they do, including how they marry. A man and woman who have this orientation together, in a covenant bond, enjoy a Christian marriage. If they deny or ignore this truth, they do so at their own peril. Reforming Marriage, pg. 11.
