Publisher's Description

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 Identity Grace in the Day-to-Day Grace in Crisis Grace and Communication Grace and Sex Grace 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.

“The jury is in, and the verdict is clear. Most marriage partners are essentially incompatible according to the law. Thank God for grace . . . and for The Grace Marriage! As a professor and professional marriage and family therapist for over thirty years, I absolutely love this approach that weds grace and intentionality with smart training.”

Scott Wigginton

“This book gives us a clear reminder that the same grace that transforms our spiritual lives can also transform our marriages. God uses marriage to grow and mature us in ways that no other human relationship can. Brad and Marilyn's life and marriage are a testimony to the power of grace in action.”

Derek Irvin

“Brad and Marilyn don't just talk the talk, but they walk the walk. This book is not theoretical, it's full of practical and applicable coaching for all of us who want to glorify God in our marriages. I've seen them live it out in their own lives and highly recommend this book! Read it with your spouse!”
