In a few words, let me just say - WOW! I loved this book! It took what is an often discussed issue (marriage) and addressed it in a little different light than I have ever heard it taught on or discussed. Mark and Grace Driscoll begin with the premise that marriage starts with a foundation of friendship and is built on that. The intimacy and baggage we bring into our relationship is magnified greatly if we, over time, stop being friends and allow sin and lies to take our hearts away from one another.
Overall, I thought this book was great and a MUST READ for any and all people who are married, planning on being married soon, or interact with people who are. They write in a very REAL way - so be prepared for the curtain to get drawn as they deal with real issues, real questions and present a biblical view of friendship, marriage and sex. The topic that the write on is a difficult one, but the Driscoll's do a great job tearing down walls and opening up lines of communication within marriages. They don't shy away from tough issues, hard questions and make sure to give scriptural evidence for their positions.
I received this book free from the publisher through the BookSneeze®.com <http://BookSneeze®.com> book review bloggers program. I was not required to write a positive review.
