About this title

From the Back Cover

Is Your Marriage as Dynamic and Exciting as it Could Be?

Remember how you felt on your wedding day? As newlyweds? God wants your life together to become more exciting as time goes on.

In The Surprising Marriage, discover the joys of a faith journey together, learn how to pass on to your children the legacy of a Christ-centered marriage, find ways to celebrate your differences--rather than fighting against each other, and realize how a marriage filled with life and love reflects God's glory. This study contains four sessions, each with four main components:

Tilling the Ground
Planting the Seed
Watering the Hope
Harvesting the Fruit

Your marriage was designed to flourish as it ages. As you seek God's will together, you will find that you can have a relationship . . . filled with life!

"We often hear that the institution of marriage is suffering. But there is good news, too! By submitting their relationships to God and seeking out the right resources, married couples can know what it means to truly thrive. That's what Focus on the Family's Marriage Series is all about. Whether you're in a small group, a mentoring relationship, or you just want to study as a couple, this series can transform your marriage for the better."--Jim Daly, President, Focus on the Family

"Marriage is an amazing adventure--filled with excitement, joy, and challenges. Focus on the Family's Marriage Series examines God's gift of marriage in all of its wonderful dimensions. I consider it a privilege to be involved with this important set of relationship-strengthening resources."--Dr. Greg Smalley, Vice President, Family Ministries, Focus on the Family
