The current cultural crisis: rebuilding the foundation -- Leaving and cleaving: marriage in the Old Testament -- No longer two, but one: marriage in the New Testament -- The nature of marriage: sacrament, contract or covenant? -- The ties that bind: family in the Old Testament -- The Christian family: family in the New Testament -- To have or not to have children: special issues, part 1 -- Requiring the wisdom of Solomon: special issues, part 2 -- Undivided devotion to the Lord: the divine gift of singleness -- Abandoning natural relations: the biblical verdict on homosexuality -- Separating what God has joined together: divorce and remarriage -- Faithful husbands: qualifications for church leadership -- Uniting all things in Him : concluding synthesis.
Summary: The release of the landmark first edition of God, Marriage, and Family provided an integrated, biblical treatment of God's purposes for the home. Since then, explain authors Andreas Köstenberger and David Jones, the crisis confronting modern households has only intensified, and yet the solution remains the same: obedience to and application of God's Word. In the second edition of God, Marriage, and Family, Köstenberger and Jones explore the latest controversies, cultural shifts, and teachings within both the church and society and further apply Scripture's timeless principles to contemporary issues. This new edition includes an assessment of the family-integrated church movement; discussion of recent debates on corporal punishment, singleness, homosexuality, and divorce and remarriage; new sections on the theology of sex and the parenting of teens; and updated bibliographies. This book will prove to be a valuable resource for personal and group study, Christian counseling, and marriage and family courses.
