Editorial Reviews

Deeply personal and candid, yet always biblical, helpful, and encouraging, Marriage on the Rock is magnificent. 

—Os Guinness, Author, The Call, Long Journey Home, and Time for Truth

Jimmy Evans has become one of the most trusted voices on marriage for a reason. This book is the heart of his ministry.

—Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott, #1 New York Times Bestselling Authors of Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts

Couples who hope for God's very best in their marriage need time-tested and timeless wisdom. Marriage on the Rock details that wisdom in an encouraging and highly accessible way.

—Ryan and Selena Frederick, Co-hosts of The Fierce Marriage Podcast and Co-authors, Fierce Marriage

Marriage on the Rock gives plain and tested ways in which simple obedience to biblical teachings, in dependence on the presence of Christ in life, can resolve the entire range of difficulties that plague marriage today. The secret of the advice is that it really does bring husbands and wives into harmony with the realistic action of God in their hearts and lives. It tells them how to find the kingdom of God right where they are. 

—Dallas Willard, Professor of Philosophy, University of Southern California, Speaker and Author  

Jimmy and Karen's proven ministry, especially in nurturing healthy marriage prospects for multitudes of couples, is the result of two even greater facts: they are people of proven character and they are a husband and wife of a proven marriage. Jimmy and Karen characterize the kind of relationship they teach about and what God commands. Without hesitation, I recommend this book and its authors. 
—Dr. Jack Hayford, Founder of The King's University, Founding Pastor of The Church on the Way
