Wondering how to build a great marriage? Turn to the Bible for guidance; that’s where author Dave Earley found his 14 Secrets to a Better Marriage. Now available in a handy paperback format, this book provides principles to help you build a lasting marriage, from "Put God First" to "Love When It Is Difficult." Author of the popular "21 Most" series, Earley says, "Even though I have a degree in counseling and have done my share of marriage counseling, I do not consider myself an expert on marriage. There is only one true expert on marriage - God. He has generously shared His knowledge with us in a book that we refer to as the Bible."

Excerpt

Based on the sermon series that vaulted to #1 on iTunes for Religion and Spirituality, Real Marriage is frank without being crass, honest without being voyeuristic, and biblical without being preachy. In Real Marriage, Pastor Mark Driscoll and his wife, Grace, talk about sex and marriage in down-to-earth terms, hitting issues other Christian books won't. They share private and painful issues that damaged their own marriage - including his introduction to pornography in elementary school and her abuse as a teenager at the hands of her boyfriend - and how they overcame them to experience healing and joy with each other again.

From fun date night tips to the most tricky "can we do that?" sex questions, Mark and Grace share practical help and hope for people just like them - who entered marriage a complete mess - or people planning to be married someday who want to avoid some sticky pitfalls.
