Why read it?
1 author picked Sacred Marriage as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
The subtitle of the book helps you understand Gary Thomas’s purpose: he wants to help his readers see that marriage is not primarily for our happiness.

From Scott's list on Christian marriage (from the author of a best-selling Christian marriage book).
