Synopsis

One of the most popular topics in Lee Strobela€™s book Inside the Mind of Unchurched Harry and Mary was the chapter about the marriage setting when an unbelieving spouse is married to a believer. This book expands and builds upon the themes in that chapter and focuses on understanding your unchurched spouse and learning how to live out your faith authentically in front of him or her. Lee, an atheist for the first years of his marriage to Leslie, has a unique corner on what drives the non-Christian in a marriage to be the way he or she is. The Strobels use their own story for illustration purposes, but they also have interviewed many couples who were or are in this situation. Half of the booka€™s ten chapters are from Lesliea€™s perspective and half are from Leea€™s. In addition, the Strobels also deal with the marriage settings in which one spouse is more spiritually mature or in which spouses are of different faith backgrounds (e. g., Christian-Jewish marriages).

Goodreads review by Denise

If you are a Christian and your spouse isn't, this is probably a great book for you. Not until well into the book did Lee discuss couples that are both Christians but one is content with going to church once a week if there is nothing else to do, or content with the milk of babes instead of longing......more
