Pre-Fall Marriage God's Original Will - A Journey by Email to a Mutually Satisfying Marriage (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780986223600)

The Question
Do you want to build your marriage on the fallen rubble of first century Roman culture where a wife was the property of her husband, or do you want to build it on the foundation of God's original will?

Premise
In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus prayed to God, "your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven." (Matthew 6:10, NIV) The premise of this novel is that before the Fall, God expressed His original will about a marriage relationship when He declared Adam and Eve to be coequal ruling partners.

Then God said, "Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness,
so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky,
over the livestock and all the wild animals,
and over all the creatures that move along the ground."

So God created mankind in his own image,
in the image of God he created them;
male and female he created them. (Genesis 1:26,27, NIV)

When Jesus redeemed His Church from the Fall, He also redeemed marriage to God's original will.

Story
In this novel, Jack and Caroline are missionaries serving in a very remote location with intermittent connectivity to the Internet. They love each other but argue constantly. Even though they will not be coming back to the States until they complete their current tour, they have asked Rick and Georgeann for help. Since the four of them cannot meet face to face, and the use of video conferencing is impossible, Rick and Georgeann have agreed to attempt the very unusual task of coaching them by email.

Jack and Caroline learn:

God's purpose for healing and growth through marriage
How wounds and defenses contribute to their arguments
Strategies and tools for building a mutually satisfying marriage
A Conflict Checklist for identifying factors that contribute to their arguments
The Bible's Hidden Book of Marriage

Readers
While this novel is written primarily to couples who are engaged or married, people who are divorced can use this material to not only understand relationships from their past, but also to build a mutually satisfying marriage in the future. People who are single can use this material to understand the mental and emotional dynamics of their current and past relationships, as well as the relationships of others such as parents, family, and friends. And finally, anyone who is committed to helping couples heal and grow through marriage will find this novel to be a useful resource.
