Your marriage is more than a sacred covenant with another person. It is a spiritual discipline designed to help you know God better, trust him more fully, and love him more deeply. Scores of books have been written that offer guidance for building the marriage of your dreams. But what if God's primary intent for your marriage isn't to make you happy . . . but holy? And what if your relationship isn't as much about you and your spouse as it is about you and God? Everything about your marriage--everything--is filled with prophetic potential, with the capacity for discovering and revealing Christ's character. The respect you accord your partner; the forgiveness you humbly seek and graciously extend; the ecstasy, awe, and sheer fun of lovemaking; the history you and your spouse build with one another--in these and other facets of your marriage, Sacred Marriage uncovers the mystery of God's overarching purpose. This book may very well alter profoundly the contours of your marriage. It will most certainly change you. Because whether it is delightful or difficult, your marriage can become a doorway to a closer walk with God, and to a spiritual integrity that, like salt, seasons the world around you with the savor of Christ.

In this six-session small group Bible study, Sacred Marriage, writer and speaker Gary Thomas invites you to see how God can use marriage as a discipline and a motivation to reflect more of the character of Jesus.

The notorious Judge Joseph Slagle was feared, reclusive, and wealthy. And he was implicated in the first recorded murder in Livingston County, Missouri-his own brother-in-law. Slagle was also known for creating a private burying ground, surrounded by a high brick wall, that is said to be haunted by the spirits of his four brides-seemingly healthy young women who died inexplicably and were buried without ceremony. Yet no one stepped forward, fearing they, too, might suffer grave consequences... Judge Joe Slagle stories have been told in Livingston County for generations. For many locals, Joe was a "Boogeyman" for children and a "Bluebeard" for adults, and his well-documented, perplexing pattern of behavior for over a decade was tough to reconcile with someone who claimed to be innocent of any wrongdoing. The Four Consorts of Joseph Slagle exposes the secrets he tried so hard to protect and sheds light on the man who instilled such fear and suspicion among his neighbors.

In this six-session video Bible study, bestselling author Gary Thomas draws on the example of Jesus to show the best course of action in dealing with 'toxic' people is often to just walk away.
