St John Chrysostom's
On Marriage and Family Life

Ancient Wisdom for Modern Christian Families.

* Drawn from the timeless sermons of St. John Chrysostom, this collection offers profound insight into the divine purpose of marriage, love, and parenting. Although written over 1,600 years ago, his words continue to guide couples seeking spiritual depth and unity in married life.

* * A Thoughtful Gift for Christian Couples and Clergy. * Whether for engaged couples, pastors, or theology students, this volume serves as a rich resource and lasting companion in understanding biblical marriage. It also makes a meaningful gift for weddings, anniversaries, or ministry use.  

* * Why God instituted marriage * * Sexual intimacy and holiness * * Mutual responsibilities of husband and wife * * Parenting with purpose * * The connection between Christian love and spiritual growth * *
