Pastor Mark Driscoll and his wife, Grace, talk about sex and marriage in down-to-earth terms, hitting issues other Christian books won't. While a wonderful wedding day is important, it's the last day of marriage that really counts. Will the last day of your marriage come prematurely through divorce? Will it be filled with regrets as you sit at the funeral of your spouse? Or, by God's grace, will the last day be a time to rejoice in the life you lived together? Pastor Mark Driscoll and his wife, Grace, want you to finish well on the last day. They share private and painful issues that damaged their own marriage - including his introduction to pornography in elementary school and her abuse as a teenager at the hands of a boyfriend - and how they overcame them to experience healing and joy with each other again. Together they tackle the tough issues, such as:
- Should I confess my pre-marital sexual sin to my spouse?
- Is it okay to have a "work husband/wife"
- Can I say no to sex when I really do have a headache?
- What does the Bible say about masturbation and oral sex?
From fun date night tips to the most tricky "can we do that?" sex questions, Mark and Grace share practical help and hope with people just like them - who entered marriage a complete mess - or who are planning to be married someday and want to avoid some sticky pitfalls.

Any additional comments?
The content is relevant and useful in a real marriage (as the title indicates). There are many hard questions answered and much need clairity for the Christian couple. I am a Christian woman married to a Non-Christian man (I was saved after we were married) and there has been a great deal of confusion for me on how to proceed with my marriage and keep it faithfully intact. I have taken some of the content and applied it practically to my marriage and have already felt a shift in both my attitude and that of my husband. Thank you Mark and Grace for allowing us an intimate look into what a Christian marriage should look like and how it should function; I would recommend this book to singles, newly married, and people who have been married for a long time but have never truly understood how to run their marriage biblically, this has been a great help to me and I am certain it can be a great help to thousands of other struggling couples!This is for Real Marriages!

What did you like best about Real Marriage? What did you like least?
I liked the list of liberating facts that couples can indulge in without guilt, however there is no real help for problems if the marriage is in serious trouble with how to fix addictions to sexual problems.What do you think your next listen will be?
self help on marriage, since the church makes people feel like they can not get real helpDo you think Real Marriage needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
yes it needs lists of places for retreat and marriage couselingAny additional comments?
I am glad the candid truth about thier past, but what about the recovery of serious addictions to porn and sex out of marriage?Liberating, but somewhat not exactly helpful
