I'm motivated to join God in his global reclamation project. He's on the move, setting his sons and daughters free from their places of captivity. And he's partnering with those of us who have been freed to go and free others.

Thanks Seth. Welcome home…….
On of the best books (I believe) on this topic is “The Mystery of Marriage”.
And the standardized test and assessment model is fraught with error. People are not an algorithm. There is not prediction per se.
These are tools to help.
But in the end you need people willing to “die” to save the covenant.
It all starts and ends there.
That is two divorces later–neither of which I wanted.
If they are not believers, why would they even read a book titled, The Christ-Centered Marriage? Just a question…
Thought provoking comments and very useful links. Thanx Seth!
Taryn – Because he tells them to maybe. If they want him to marry them, it’s a part of the package.
John and Stasi Eldrege just released a book about this called “Love and War”…only in the first chapter, but it’s great so far.
Do you think it’s wise to reveal all the details of every past relationship? Specifics about sexual history? I am reading through the “personal history questionnaire” and am wondering if perhaps some things are best left unsaid.
I recently had a conversation with my girlfriend and we shared the number of past sexual partners. After sharing and experiencing the emotions/feelings afterward… I’m wondering if it may have been better to just accept that we’re both made new in Christ. I’m not sure what I gained by knowing (and now thinking about) the number of men she had been before meeting the Lord.
What does everything think? Anybody have any experience using this questionnaire?
