Marriage is the perfect fulfillment of the deepest desires of the hearts of men and women-in a perfect Eden. Taking the concepts they discussed in Wild at Heart and Captivating, they show how these affect our marriage relationships. They point out that the Bible begins and ends with a marriage that marriage is a reflection of God’s deep desire for relationship and that anything God deems important, Satan attacks. With their usual openness about their own struggles (including the difficulties of writing a book about marriage together) and a good dose of humour, John and Stasi delve into what marriage means to God.
