Why Does Marriage Today Seem To Be Such a Far Cry From Paradise? Let's face it. Our culture's version of marriage is not as God designed it to be. With a lot more emphasis on individualism and consumerism, today's married couples tend to lose sight of God's original purpose for marriage--a call for his people to take Jesus' message to the heart of everyday life. Marriage Made in Eden provides a radical alternative to today's view of marriage, giving a glimpse into the historical and cultural aspects that have shaped marriage in America. With this insightful analysis you'll learn how marriage has come to be in the state we now find it and about God's model and purpose for a sacred Christian union. ""Alice Mathews and Gay Hubbard bring together decades of experience in this thoughtful, interdisciplinary volume."" -- Mary Stewart Van Leeuwen professor of psychology and philosophy, Eastern University ""At last a profoundly biblical book on Christian marriage."" -- Gordon Fee, professor emeritus, Regent College ""Must-reading for all Christians concerned with promoting an understanding of marriage that is in accordance with God's intentions."" -- Stanley J. Grenz Pioneer McDonald Professor, Carey Theological College Alice Mathews, PhD (University of Denver and the Iliff School of Theology) is former academic dean at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary where she served on the faculty since 1999. Having served in theological education for thirty years, she has lectured in areas of cultural analysis, gender issues in ministry, and a Christian understanding of marriage and family. Her pubications include A Woman God Can Lead and Preaching That Speaks to Women. Alice is also heard daily on the radio program Discover the Word. M. Gay Hubbard, PhD, is in private counseling practice with Charis Counseling Services, Denver, CO. Her interests include the study of women's developmental life cycle, women's needs and responses in the counseling process, and the integration of psychology and theology into a biblically based model for counseling theory and relationships.
