Why I'd hand it to you
Timothy Keller and his wife Kathy explain marriage from a Christian view as a covenant built on commitment and service, not just romance. They talk honestly about selfishness, friendship and sex, and they include thoughtful material for single readers too. Engaged couples and married readers alike will find practical wisdom here. A fair heads-up: the chapter on gender roles, written by Kathy, presents a traditional view that some readers, including some Christians, will disagree with. It is also more theology than how-to. For couples who want a deeper foundation, it is one of the more thoughtful books on the subject.
