Good and packed with truth!, May 20, 2010
This review is from: Marriage Matters (Paperback)
This booklet is only 72 pages long but it really packs a good punch. Dr. Tony Evans uses only necessary words to describe what marriage should be. We live in a society where divorce rates are rampant. In a world where many children are being raised in single parent homes. Dr. Evans takes a look at what God's original plan and design was for marriage. He explores how if we lived the way the Designer prescribed then things would run much more smoothly.
This would be a great book for a husband and wife to read together and pray through about where they are in their relationship. To see where they are succeeding and where they need to grow. It was a good and easy read filled fully with truth. I really enjoyed it.

Marriage DOES Matter!, May 22, 2010
This review is from: Marriage Matters (Paperback)
It's something God created, so it's got to be good! Yet, the world says otherwise.
I've enjoyed reading the book Marriage Matters. It was a refresher to read the basics of marriage which I knew from reading God's Word. It also looked at marriage and scripture from this author's point of view, ways I had never thought of, but left me with even greater hope and encouragement.
I could see clips of my own marriage as I read through this book, which means I can give testament to a lot of what this author shares. My marriage has seen the blessings of allowing God into a marriage that was a self-service station for the longest time! Sadly, it's early years were working ground for the devil's lies and efforts to destroy a marriage. Thank God, my Savior, for keeping us together, until we finally listened to Him!
I do recommend this book. It is well-rounded to encourage both the trouble marriage and the stronger marriage, both the husband and the wife.
The author has two more books, For Married Men Only and For Married Women Only, which he has written as continuations of this book. They go into further detail, specifically for each partner. I haven't read them, but I will be ordering the one for the wife.
A review copy of this book was provided to me in exchange for my honest review. Also being provided is a copy to one commenter here at my blog.
