    About this ebook

    In the twenty-fourth chapter of Genesis a beautiful young woman offers assistance to a weary traveler and his camels, and out of that simple action, a marriage results-a marriage that offers profound lessons to couples today. Bible scholar and renowned speaker Ravi Zacharias draws five points critical to the long-lasting success of every marriage from the biblical story of the marriage of Isaac and Rebekah.

    "Real love folds together both the emotions and the will," writes Zacharias. "Without the emotions, marriage is a drudgery; without the will, it is a mockery." Building upon that foundational truth, Zacharias goes on to explain the principles of seeking the counsel of others when finding a mate, cherishing your partner, remaining pure, becoming a man or woman of prayer, and, finally, risking everything in a relationship in order to experience God's ideal for love.

    Couples everywhere, from those about to be married, to those who have been married for decades, will draw strength and wisdom for the journey of marriage as they learn from Ravi what it means to move from romance to lasting love.

    • 5/5
      Very useful book for married couples to read.
    • 5/5
      A must to read esp. If your priorities are to obey biblical principles about courtship!❤
    • 5/5
      This book has clarified a lot of questions I had about a Godly marriage, and I think the most important question that is answered is that "Why do I want a Godly marriage and is the wait worth it?". Now I have my answer, it is worth it. And there is nothing more beautiful than a God-orchestrated marriage where it's Him that at the end of the road who I can give all the credit to.
    • 5/5
      Great Book.
      Goes into the very practical matters in marriage
    • 5/5
      It will change your perspective about marriage. Praise God. Grateful
