The Meaning of Marriage: Facing the Complexities of Commitment with the Wisdom of God by Kathy Keller, Timothy Keller

3.0

The first few chapters were filled with insight, and I pored over them, taking notes and reflecting deeply. The second half of the book I didn't feel the same, and I flew through with less attention, with a few insights here and there. Looking at marriage as a reflection of the gospel, and of the trinity, our relational God, this overall message is very powerful. The chapter on gender roles made me think, and though I don't fully agree with it, I appreciate the clarification of headship/leadership of the husband as servant-leadership, modelled after Jesus, and not just the broken, patriarchal tradition of the world.
