Reviews
I know a young couple contemplating marriage who will get a copy of this book immediately. And it just might be included in every wedding gift I offer in the future. CONNECT--Small Christian Community Connection, "Catholics reading this book will be stunned at the clarity and depth of their Church's vision of marriage. David Thomas combines his rich experience as lay theologian, husband, and father with language and images that sparkle and wake us up to the marvelous mystery of this sacrament!" -- Susan Smith, Christian Marriage is a wonderful theological reflection on the challenges and rewards experienced by men and women bound together in holy matrimony. . . . Christian Marriage is recommended for parish libraries. Catholic Library World
Synopsis
2008 Catholic Press Association Award Winner! Couples who marry today enter into a relationship that is in many ways more challenging than it was a generation or two ago. The social institution of marriage has experienced almost cataclysmic change. The very foundations of marriage are often questioned. Yet Christian marriage, David Thomas insists, retains a power to transform and sanctify lives. Thomas presents in this second edition of Christian Marriage the same view as he did in his first book: a positive view of Christian marriage grounded in sacramental living. Yet this edition is entirely new as Thomas reflects on how current theological, cultural, and economic perspectives influence and inform Christian marriage. Thus A Journey Together (the subtitle of the earlier edition) becomes The New Challenge. And readers enter with Thomas into a discussion of contemporary concerns such as intimacy and sexuality, gender equality and relational spirituality, and parenting with hope in a world of unknowns. Facing these challenges of marriage, Christian couples will discover ways to meet the one great challenge: to love each other as Christ Jesus has and continues to love us. David Thomas, PhD, is the current co-director of The Bethany Family Institute. For over thirty years he was a Professor of Systematic Theology, Religion, and Family Life at St. Louis University, St. Meinrad School of Theology in Indiana, and Regis University in Denver. Thomas served as a theological consultant to the United States Catholic Bishops ' Committee on Marriage and Family Life. He and Karen, his wife of forty years, are the parents of seven children and seventy-five foster children. He now lives in Whitefish, Montana., 2008 Catholic Press Association Award Winner Couples who marry today enter into a relationship that is in many ways more challenging than it was a generation or two ago.

The value of product was expected for price, but description wasn’t quite accurate. With swift communication, the seller maneuvered the conversation in a very controlled way. Very professional! In all honesty, I will have no problem buying again from this seller. Thank you, SecondSalecom! I pray you continue to improve on your already good business practices.
- b***k (1167)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseNice book. Quality as described. Received only two of the four items I ordered. Upon inquiry the seller apologized and said the missing books were no longer available and had been sold to another buyer at the same time even tho I had paid and received tracking information indicating all four were packaged together. They promptly refunded me. This was an unusual occurrence and I will continue to purchase used books from this seller. Great prices and extensive selections. Xlnt customer service!
