The Mystery of Marriage (20th Anniversary Edition) by Mike Mason

Meditate on the Spiritual Significance of Marriage

In the 20th Anniversary Edition of this Gold Medallion Award winner, Mike Mason goes on a poetic search to understand the wondrous dynamics of committed love. In highly readable, first-person style, Mason's writing stimulates readers' thoughts and prayers and propels couples to deeper intimacy. "A marriage is not a joining of two worlds," says the author, "but an abandoning of two worlds in order that one new one might be formed."

Rich chapters on-

. Otherness
. Vows
. Intimacy
. Sex
. Submission
. and an all-new chapter on "Oneness"

lift readers to view the eternal, spiritual nature of this faith-filled, "impossible," wild-yet wonderful-frontier.
