Supposedly in God's divine plan for marriage. But if God created marriage so that husband and wife could become `one flesh,` why are marriages more a battle of `me` vs. `you` than a matter of `us`? Noted counselor Lawrence J. Crabb untangles our twisted perceptions of the marriage relationship. Most married people look to their partners to fulfill their needs, thus reducing marriage to a mutually manipulative relationship. Expecting Christ, rather than our mates, to fulfill our needs will enable us to minister unselfishly to the needs of our mates. With Christ added into the equation, one plus one cam equal one: a oneness of body and spirit in the marriage relationship.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Larry Crabb</note> <subject> <topic>Marriage -- Religious aspects -- Christianity</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">248.84</classification> <classification authority="ddc">L334-C88</classification> <identifier type="isbn">0884691845</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/ImageCover/2022/5/10/2503.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/ImageCover/2022/5/10/2503.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordContentSource authority="marcorg">1</recordContentSource> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2022-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119070635.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
