Her Hand in Marriage: Biblical Courtship in the Modern World
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Troubled marriages don't just happen, they are made. In virtually every case, the seed of eventual irreconcilable difference is planted well before vows are exchanged. in Her Hand in Marriage, Douglas Wilson points to the modern dating system as the mother of most broken marriages. Dating encourages emotional attachments with covenantal fences and makes a joke of the father's authority. Wilson unearths the almost forgotten pattern of biblical courtship and outlines how it should be applied in our society today. Biblical courtship is grounded upon the involved authority of the father and rooted in the public lives of families. Parents and their preteen sons and daughters need to read Her Hand in Marriage and discover the wonderful freedom of biblical courtship.
