In What God Has Joined Together, Tim Hegg starts by looking at the creation narrative and how Adam and Chavah (Eve) were created and what their role was in the Garden. Tim then looks at the fall and the effects of sin on the man and woman and how this effected their relationship. This short study that fills the first two chapters of this wonderful book then moves to marriage as a covenant and how the Bible discusses covenant relationship between us and God and within marriage.
Tim's vast knowledge of biblical covenants and his unique perspective as a Messianic Jew shines through in these chapters. Tim then moves to the characteristics of a godly husband and wife so that we can better understand what the Bible expects from us as believers when we are in a marriage relationship.
Tim covers all the bases in this book as he then turns to betrothal and marriage and looks at how the bible discusses believers finding spouse. Also included is a chapter on divorce in the fallen world and what the Bible says about this topic.
Perhaps one of the most important chapters in this book looks at forgiveness in the Bible and how we as believers should practice forgiveness in our lives especially towards our spouse. In this chapter, Tim suggests that forgiveness is the foundation of every great marriage and that we should practice forgiving as much as possible.
This book comes from a unique perspective and is a wonderful guide for married couples, engaged couples, dating couples, or single adults that are looking for a spouse. It approaches the important subject of marriage from a biblical perspective and attempts to place the Word of God at the center of the conversation.
