Worum geht es?

In today's society where divorce rates are high and people are increasingly doubtful about the ability of monogamy to bring true happiness, The Meaning of Marriage (2011) seeks to shed light on the institution of marriage. Through the lens of Pastor Timothy Keller and theologian Kathy Keller, the book explores the reasons behind the hesitancy of many couples to commit and the growing number of failed marriages. According to the authors, our unrealistic expectations and failure to understand the genuine essence of marriage contribute to these issues. They emphasize the importance of continuously learning to love each other, as taught in the Bible.
