This collection of sermons by St. John Chrysostom offers profound insights into marriage, countering the perception that Christian tradition overlooks the sanctity of married life. Though a monk himself, Chrysostom deeply understood the challenges faced by families and drew wisdom from the letters to the Corinthians and Ephesians.
He teaches that marriage was instituted by God to foster the spiritual growth of both spouses, with children as a secondary purpose. Chrysostom addresses the beauty of sexual intimacy within marriage, the mutual responsibilities of husbands and wives, and the importance of parenting in faith.
With timeless wisdom, these sermons offer practical guidance for building holy, loving family relationships. Whether you’re married, preparing for marriage, or reflecting on family life, this book will inspire you to see marriage as a path to holiness and a reflection of God’s love.
Translated by Catharine P. Roth & David Anderson.
