A Lifelong Love: What If Marriage Is About More Than Just Staying Together?

by Gary Thomas

More practical and less Gospel-centered: spiritual habits applied to an ordinary marriage, warm and undemanding theologically, with some direct discussion of sexual intimacy. 186 pgs. · 5h 40m audio

How it works.

Four months. Your group meets once a month — in a home, usually over a meal, or online by video. The meeting is a checkpoint and an encouragement — you don’t go over everyone’s answers. Between meetings, each couple works through three things together:

Read together
About a quarter of the book, with a few questions to talk through.
Date Night
A short set of questions to take out with you, without the kids.
Watch together
A message to watch, and a few questions after it.

Marking something done is a single tap. There is never a text box you have to fill in, and notes you do write stay between the two of you.

Start a group.

$20 once

You pick the date and the place, then send one link to the couples you want with you. The group will consist of two to six couples, including you and your spouse, so you’ll invite one to five other couples. The couples you invite pay nothing — their only cost is the book.
