Product: The Meaning of Marriage: Audio Bible Studies

Modern culture would have you believe that everyone has a soul mate; that romance is the most important part of a successful marriage; that marriage does not mean 'til death do us part, but merely for as long as my needs are being met; and that when serious differences arise, divorce is the best solution.

According to the Bible, all of these modern-day assumptions miss what marriage is all about. Join Timothy Keller, along with Kathy, his wife of 40 years, as they draw a profound portrait of marriage from the pages of Scripture that neither idealizes nor rejects the institution but points us back to the relationship between God and man. The result is a vision for marriage that is refreshingly frank and unsentimental, yet hopeful and beautiful.

Product: 팀켈러, 결혼을 말하다, The Meaning of Marriage(Korean Edition) 그가 강단에서 전한 설교 시리즈를 토대로 엮은 이 책은 그리스도인과 무신론자, 미혼 남녀와 오랫동안 가정을 꾸려온 부부, 또는 혼례를 앞두고 있는 예비 신랑 신부를 가리지 않고 모든 이들에게 성경이 가르치는 바람직한 결혼 생활의 큰 그림을 보여 준다. 현대 문화는 누구에게나 마음이 통하는 소울 메이트(soul mate)가 있으며, 행복한 결혼 생활을 꾸려 가는 데는 로맨스가 가장 중요하며, 배우자의 역할은 이편의 잠재력을 끌어내 꿈을 실현하도록 돕는 데 있으며, 결혼은 ‘죽는 날까지’가 아니라 그저 ‘지금’ 의미를 가질 따름이고, 부부 관계가 벽에 부딪혔다 싶으면 얼른 이혼하고 새 출발하는 것이 상책이라는 사고방식을 주입시킨다. 그런데 이 시대를 지배하는 가정들에 대해 얼마나 하나님의 원칙으로부터 떠나 있는지 조망해 준다. 팀 켈러는 성경을 지침으로 삼고, 서른일곱 해 동안 함께 결혼 생활을 한 아내, 캐시 켈러의 예리한 해석을 덧붙이면서 하나님이 우리의 삶에 기쁨을 주기 위해 결혼 제도를 만드셨음을 보여 준다. 또한 남편과 아내는 더할 나위 없이 신비롭지만 그만큼 오해와 착각도 많은 관계임을 밝혀 준다. 하나님을 알고 더 깊이 사랑하고자 한다면, 성경의 가르침에 대한 명쾌한 해석과 결혼 생활을 성공적으로 이끌어가는 데 더없이 중요한 가르침들을 이 책을 통해 반드시 얻게 될 것이다.
