Holy Matrimony: God Created the Family before He Created the Church

Book Discusses the Importance of Holy Matrimony and How to Save and Preserve ItToday, the institution of marriage is the center of great controversy, because of various groups seeking to redefine it, from gays and lesbians seeking to marry -- to others promoting group marriages. But these efforts undermine a union that has been critical to maintaining the foundation of society.HOLY MATRIMONY describes the importance of this union from a Christian perspective, which emphasizes that marriage should be considered a holy union between a man and a woman. It discusses how this union is being destroyed, not only undermining God's plan according to the Bible, but the stability of society as a whole. For example, the high number of AIDS cases, particularly among the African-American community, is transmitted due to the decline of monogamy in modern society. The book draws on my own experiences, where I was married to a bishop in an African-American gospel church, who turned out to be living a secret double life, involved in adultery and prostitution. Also, it draws on the Biblical teachings about what a marriage should be, ranging from the beginning of the relationship to problems that occur in the marriage and what to do about them. Some examples of chapters are: ?Asking For Her Hand In Marriage,? ?What Is a Husband and Wife in the Eye of God,? ?The Nature of Holy Matrimony,? and ?Forgiveness When There Are Problems in the Relationship.'Boone, Angela is the author of 'Holy Matrimony: God Created the Family before He Created the Church' with ISBN 9780974511221 and ISBN 0974511226.
