Wow… I think God is really trying to tell us something!

In my last few emails, I talked about how, as Christian married people, we needed to celebrate and be grateful for the joys of marriage.

I asked you to send me your testimonies about the joy and fulfillment that you find in yours. (If you haven’t yet, please do!).

A few days ago, I received a copy of an amazing book that is truly unique… It celebrates the beauty and romance and sensual nature of Christian married love in a way that I don’t remember seeing before… It is written by Michael A.G Haykin and is, essentially an anthology of love letters written between Christian married couples.

The editorial description… “Marriage is under siege in our time, and Christian unions are not going unscathed… Dr. Michael A. G. Haykin believes that love letters written by Christian husbands and wives of the past can help strengthen the ties that bind believing spouses today… In this anthology, he brings together letters from one or both parties in twelve significant relationships from church history…

The contents range from courtship communications to proposals of marriage to final words before dying, but most have to do with the ups and downs of married life. In the end, The Christian Lover is a celebration of marriage, an intimate window into the thoughts of men and women who were deeply in love with both God and one another…” You can watch a few videos of him talking about his book below:
