Is your idea of marriage framed by movies, popular romance novels or your own idealistic fantasies? Would you know what will remain of your marriage after the honeymoon is over? Is the knowledge of a biblical marriage included in your Wedding Planner notebook?

In Jerusha Clark’s new book “When I Get Married: Surrendering the Fantasy, Embracing the Reality“, the tone is set in Chapter One with these words from Isaiah…

“Do not fear, for I have redeemed you:
I have called you by name, you are Mine!…
You are precious in My sight…
You are honored and I love you…

For the mountains may be removed
and the hills may shake,
But My Lovingkindness will not be removed from you,
And My covenant of peace will not be shaken. “
—Isaiah 43:1,4; 54:10, NASB

Drawing from biblical principles and written with a personable, conversational ease, this book takes the reader through ten misconceptions about marriage provoking the reader from abstract fantasies to the far better genuine reality if approached as God intended.

Each chapter is filled with citations from other highly recommended books on marriage, offering the reader direction should they want to pursue the Truths the author presents.

Marriage is the second most important decision in a woman’s life (the first being her salvation) and Jerusha Clark addresses 10 ideas in the light of scripture.

1. I’ll Always Feel Loved
2. I’ll Feel Whole, Complete, and Satisfied
3. I Won’t Feel Lonely Anymore
4. Life will Be So Much Better
5. I Won’t Have to Worry About Money
6. I’ll know What to Do with the Rest of My Life
7. Sex Won’t be an Issue Anymore
8. I’ll Feel Pretty (and Witty and Bright)
9. I’ll Have a Happy Family
10. It Will Be Forever

This is a wonderful resource for the woman who is not afraid of Truth, who truly wants a successful marriage, and is willing to walk through the scriptures to establish her home. ( )
