God deliberately ordained the family as a sacred institution with a unique purpose in His plans for the world. Sometimes even Christians treat this topis with superficiality. Those who try to find happiness in marriage while excluding God from the relationship will experience futility. "Holy Matrimony" guides godly couples in marriage and parenting. The book also provides research ideas for pastors, teachers, counselors and leaders who set church policies on marriage. Included: defending the sanctity of marriage, monogamy, homosexuality, cohabitation without vows, holiness in covenantal sex, gender equality/gender roles, divorce and remarriage after divorce, marriage of believers to unbelievers, and others.
