Sacred Marriage Bible Study Guide plus Streaming Video, Revised and Updated: What If God Designed Marriage to Make Us Holy More Than to Make Us Happy?
In the Sacred Marriage Bible Study, bestselling author and speaker Gary Thomas invites you to see how God can use marriage as a discipline and a motivation to reflect more of the character of Jesus.

Your marriage is much more than a union between you and your spouse. It is a spiritual discipline ideally suited to help you know God more fully and intimately. Sacred Marriage shifts the focus from marital enrichment to spiritual enrichment in ways that can help you love your mate more. Whether it is delightful or difficult, your marriage can become a doorway to a closer walk with God. Everything about your marriage—from the history you and your spouse create, to the love you share, to the forgiveness you both offer and seek—is filled with the capacity to help you grow in Christ's character.

This revised and updated edition includes all-new videos from Gary featuring new insights, illustrations, and teachings for the modern married couple. In addition to the videos, participants will find a wealth of discussion questions in the study guide that will spark meaningful conversation in their groups, between them and their spouses, and to simply ponder by themselves. They will also find self-assessments and activities to help them engage deeply and prayerfully with the content of this study.
