How our book helps pastors
Solidly Biblical
Building Your Marriage Upon the Rock is based solidly on the Bible. It’s filled with scriptures and adheres to the common tenets of the Christian faith. Thus, Pastors from every doctrinal position and denomination can use it with confidence.
It presents marriage in the light of the Kingdom of God. It guides couples to evaluate realistically their own, and their prospective mate’s, relationship to God as well as their character, motives, maturity, and readiness for a Godly, lifelong marriage.
