When Sinners Say “Yes”

In When Sinners Say “I Do,” he understands the central tension of the married relationship. He explains the condemnation and the hope of every human relationship. It is the theme that is present in some way on every page of this book. What is this tension? It is the tension between sin and grace.
If you are married, or will be married soon, you are discovering that your marriage is not a romance novel. Marriage is the union of two people who bring with them the baggage of life. That baggage contains sin. It often opens during the honeymoon; sometimes it waits until the following week. But the baggage of sin is always there, sometimes confusing its owners; sometimes it opens unexpectedly and spills out forgotten contents. We must not ignore our sin, since it is the context in which the gospel shines most brightly.
When sinners say “I do,” it is not a depressing thought. This book recognizes that to get to the heart of marriage, we must deal with the heart of sin. Until we understand the problem, we cannot enjoy the solution.
Whether you’re looking forward to your wedding day or have been married for many years, one thing is certain: your relationship is not perfect. And since it is not perfect, you as a couple need to look into the mirror of God’s Word once again. This book will help you do that.
