Gary Thomas believes couples often settle for too little when it comes
to marriage. We fail to understand how deeply God cares about our
spouse. We diminish our need to not only understand what biblical love
really is, but also to become a people who excel at it. We let ourselves
drift apart instead of making the daily choices to grow closer
together.
Whether your marriage needs a complete makeover, a touch up, or just a new purpose, A Lifelong Love promises to set your relationship on an entirely new dimension. You will never look at worship or your spouse in the same way again. You will understand how living for that day will so radically transform the decisions you make this day. And Gary will guide you through the power shifts and seasonal mine fields that blow up so many marriages so that you can grow in your love instead of in your disappointment.
Thirty years of study and two decades of working with couples has led Gary Thomas to his most significant book yet on the relationship between husband and wife. Find out for yourself what all the fuss is about—and why A Lifelong Love is sure to challenge the way the church talks about marriage.

My Review
A Lifelong Love
By: Gary Thomas
In this book Gary Thomas gives us practical tools we can use
to help our marriage. I think this book would be great for new to older
marriages. God can always work in a marriage as long as we are willing to try
to make it work. In the very beginning
he talked about how we come into the marriage is it a obsession? If so usually
will end up getting bored with one another in a short period of time. This can
change having Christ in the relationship.
God says love your wife as Christ loves the church. If we yield our hearts to God we will have
marital satisfaction. Because with God's
grace will strive to do what is right and worthy of His praise. Gary uses many
stories to show different issues and ways we should be going to be honoring to
Christ. I liked the questions at the end
of each chapter gave you something to think about. this could be a good book for the couple to
do together. I know from my own experience our marriage went in the right path
when we let God be the head of it. Plus we are equally yoked. Great book.
I will be giving away one hardback copy!
