Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

My Thoughts on Love,Marriage, and CompatibilityIt stands to reason that to get good practical advice, you should look to someonewho's been there and done it. With all the qualified and experienced pastors,councilors, sociologists, etc. who have written on love and marriage, whyshould a lifelong bachelor with no specific education on the subject bother towrite on it? First, just to explain my views since I have difficulty doing so inperson. Also, it's my observation that no one is so ignorant that a wise personcan't learn something of value from him. So, I wrote this for those friends whocan glean wisdom from the most unpromising sources. It has quite a differentperspective than most so, for what it's worth, there may be something herethat's not in scholarly works.While divorce was multiplying, marriage books and counseling by marriage expertswere too, almost all by married people. That says inside the box thinking isn'tdoing enough. It's easier to think outside the box when you live outside the box.The main thrust of this booklet is this; the more Christians love the Lord, themore compatible they are, period: and the more they value the things of thisworld, this life, good or bad, the more those things will come between them.At the same time, God will bless those who's courtship and marriage model theunion of Christ and His Church, and not those that don't, even when thoseattitudes, good or bad, were acquired as a cultural norm while growing up andnot as a well thought out belief.It's God's first purpose for marriage to symbolize and in believers demonstratethat blessed relationship so we all have a way to believe in what would otherwisebe beyond comprehension. It's very much a love story.
