{"product_id":"love-marriage-and-family","title":"Love, Marriage, and Family","description":"\u003cp\u003eLiving according to a Christian sexual ethic today feels like an uphill battle, but this battle is not new. We first observe it in the Old and New Testaments, where we meet people who struggled to follow God’s desire for love, marriage and family—swimming against the current of the culture. Today, Christians do the same, living as a minority in a world of extramarital sex, exploitation, abortion, frivolous divorce, and other behavior that significantly falls short of God’s glory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this book, Finnish scholar Erkki Koskenniemi posits that traditional Greco-Roman sexual ethics were far from what we consider “traditional” today—rather, they more closely resemble the worldly and debaucherous behavior we see in modern culture. Knowing that “there is nothing new under the sun” (Ephesians 1:9), Koskenniemi encourages Christians to live uprightly, honoring the wonderful gifts of love, marriage, and family our loving and forgiving Creator has given us—just as the first Christians sought to do. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eChristian sexual ethics still means light in the darkness. \u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eNow we need to bring this light to people so it can lighten \u003c\/span\u003etheir own hearts and environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"p1\"\u003eTopics Covered\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eViews on children\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eSocial customs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eHomosexuality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eSingleness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eThe institution of marriage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eThe purpose of sex\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eAdultery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eDivorce\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eRemarriage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eSexual morality today\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Erkki Koskenniemi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55416949539192,"sku":"124720","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/9351\/9316\/files\/10112817_LRG.jpg?v=1768387314","url":"https:\/\/etcevents.co.uk\/products\/love-marriage-and-family","provider":"ETCEvents","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
