Marriage Made in Eden: A Pre-Modern Perspective in a Post-Christian World
By Alice P. Mathews and M. Gay Hubbard
Marriage Made in Eden is replete with fresh insights into the true meaning of Christian marriage. The authors describe marriage as more than a civil contract -- it is also a depiction of the relationship between God and God's people. Seeing marriage this way shapes God's people in four ways: 1.) God created male and female to bear the divine image equally. 2.) Since the image-bearers ruptured their relationship with God through sin, the image in them is "bent and broken." 3.) God promises one day to restore the distorted image. 4.) Marriage is shaped both by personal brokenness and by the culture's hostility toward God's purposes.
