Ash’s book helpfully explores what marriage is for and how ultimately its purpose is God’s service
Married for God by Christopher Ash is a book on marriage from a Christian perspective that is essential to read whether you are married or single. Rather than focussing on how to improve marriage or what marriage actually is, this book starts with what marriage is for. It challenges us, whether married or single, to align ourselves with God’s plan for marriage, rather than expecting him to work to our terms! It’s a very readable version of Ash’s hefty ethical tome, Marriage: Sex in the Service of God, and helpfully challenges lots of the ways that our culture has distorted our assumptions about relationships.
