Description
New from Bestselling Author Wayne Grudem
The topic of divorce is a complicated one, even among Christians. The Bible provides some clear answers, but other areas remain blurry: Is divorce morally acceptable in a case of physical abuse? If a divorce is granted for biblically legitimate reasons, is remarriage allowed? Can a divorced person become a church officer? In this short booklet, theologian Wayne Grudem offers a thought-provoking analysis of what the Bible says--and doesn't say--about divorce and remarriage. By combining theological insight with practical application--including an argument that 1 Corinthians 7:15 permits divorce for abuse--Grudem brings clarity to a difficult topic and helpful guidance to those looking for direction.
