We were made for meaningful relationships. More money doesn’t give us genuine worth. The next trendy car won’t make us truly happy. A bigger house doesn’t give life meaning. We were created to love and be loved by others by a God who is love. Pastor and counselor Mike Tucker has advised and consoled many struggling individuals and couples. In a time when more than half of marriages fail, he finds in the Bible’s book of Ruth ten keys to lasting marriages. Sounds like a quick fix? Not so. These keys are embedded in three traits which must be present in any lasting relationship: commitment, character, and concern. Tucker invites you to communicate your love by your commitment, by demonstrating that you are a person of good character, and by showing tender concern for your spouse. If you are willing, you will find practical advice in the book of Ruth and in the book you hold in your hands. |
