Description
 
God created a unique form of relationship for two vital relationships – between an individual and God, and between a husband and wife – called a covenant relationship. Why would God create this unique form? The unique union covenant creates, as understood when Jesus made His offer in person to humanity, and when God gave marriage to the newly minted human race, explains why. A covenant is more than a relationship; it is also a plan – God’s plan – to lead us to the deepest relationship with Him and the best marriage. Covenant defines love, shows us how to love, and motivates us to love; but is also the path to the growth and transformation which enable us to build the best marriages and families, and to build the deepest and most powerful relationships with God. Within this ancient but misunderstood form or relationship is the very heart of God’s plan for humanity. What does God intend these relationships to be? Let us see.

About the Author:
Dr. Mark Johnson and wife Holley have seven grown children and an ever-growing group of grandchildren. For thirty-five years the understanding of covenant in these volumes has been the integrating point for his relationship with God and his marriage. Every concept has been applied, tested and proven for decades in life, marriage, family, and mentoring. His deepest passion is understanding why some build deep, powerful relationships with God while others do not; why some marriages are love-for-a-lifetime, while a growing number are not. The answer is found in covenant, in which we discover what we must do to build these relationships to their potential.
