Jul 16 Marriage by Paul David Tripp

Marriage by Paul David Tripp is an updated and repackaged version of his previous book What Did You Expect? In the new version, the title and cover have changed and there are two new chapters. Tripp says in the Preface to the 2021 edition that the older title seemed to communicate that the book was about “misguided or failed marriage expectations” when in reality the book is actually about “six marriage commitments that result from looking at marriage through the lens of the gospel of Jesus Christ.” The new edition intends to bring those commitments to the forefront. After reading this book, I think this was a great choice and a helpful rebrand.

When Rachel and I were newly married with no kids, we'd go out on a date together every week. It was a great time for fun, laughter, romance, and intentional conversation. Being a pastor, I enjoy talking about theology and I'd often bring it up and talk with her about different things on our dates. However, I quickly found out that we had some sharp disagreements on some things and I'd usually press the issue too far and make her mad.

As a husband, I’ve had more than my fair share of screw ups. I have and will continue to make mistakes because I’m not perfect. I do apologize to my wife regularly and ask for her forgiveness. But the picture I’m aiming to project is much different than what television or movies depict.

“I like Jesus, but I don’t like the church,” is what I used to say. “I’m a Christian, but my relationship with Jesus is personal.” Back when I was in high school and college, I was heavily into the Christian rock scene.

I am constantly baffled by some of the stories I hear from husbands and about husbands. I hear of men who still mostly live like they’re bachelors.

Do you remember when you first started dating that person who is now your significant other? I bet you do. I remember it clearly. I would leave my parents' house and pull into her driveway. I had spent time getting ready in hopes she would think I was attractive. Earlier in the week I had spent significant time thinking through what we do when this moment arrived.
