OK, guys, if you are reading this on the afternoon of Valentine’s Day, and you don’t have a gift for your wife you are in a load of trouble. But it is not too late to come up with a great idea, even one that will make your marriage much better, not only on Valentine’s Day, but every other day too. God’s best for you is to have a wonderful, Gospel-centered marriage. And if you take the lead in helping your relationship get healthier and stronger your wife will see you as the sexiest man alive (that’s true!). Want to wow your wife, buy a good book on marriage and spend the next couple months reading it with her.
There are two new books on marriage from incredible authors that we here at Genesis respect. Both books seek to begin with the Bible as the foundation and strive to help us understand the purpose and practice of marriage as designed by God and redeemed in the Gospel. So whether you have a great gift for your wife, or not, let me encourage you to buy one of these books and make it a priority to read with your spouse. And for anyone contemplating marriage, these books will be a great read to ensure great preparation for a lifetime of living for God’s glory in marriage.
