Marriage, Divorce, and Remarriage: A Biblical Examination of Divorce, Remarriage, and the Christian Conscience - Paperback

by Conrad Murrell (Author), Mark J. Goodson (Adapted by), Ben Zeisloft (Editor)

In "Marriage, Divorce, and Remarriage," Conrad Murrell dismantles rigid traditions and emotional extremes surrounding some of the most sensitive topics in Christian ethics. With clarity and conviction, he invites readers to revisit the topics of marriage, divorce, and remarriage with fervent study in light of the whole counsel of Scripture.

In an age where broken homes and moral confusion abound-even within the church-Murrell refuses to offer easy answers. Instead, he guides the reader through biblical texts that many interpret hastily or dogmatically, raising pressing questions: Is every marriage joined by God? Can any be dissolved without sin? Does remarriage always constitute adultery? And can those with a complex marital history serve in church leadership?

Murrell's purpose is not to cater to cultural convenience or hardened religious opinion but to "bind all that God has bound and loose all that God has loosed." With pastoral compassion and theological precision, he addresses struggling believers weighed down by guilt or condemnation, challenging them to examine the Scriptures honestly and with an open Bible. Whether or not the reader agrees with his conclusions, this work forces a reexamination of commonly held views and aims to liberate the conscience of sincere Christians who desire to walk faithfully before God.
