A classic book for couples about to marry, couples already married, and the clergy and congregations that support them.
In this updated edition, Linda Grenz and Delbert Glover thoughtfully explore the joys and challenges of marriage. Written for engaged and married couples—as well as the clergy who offer them spiritual and practical guidance—the book draws on the authors’ complementary perspectives: Grenz as an Episcopal priest and Glover as a former corporate executive. Together, they invite readers into honest, meaningful conversations about the foundations of a healthy partnership. New, inclusive material provides a discussion-based framework for topics such as extended family relationships, financial decision‑making, conflict resolution, and sexual intimacy, enriched by insights from the authors’ own marriage of more than thirty years. Order from Amazon, Barnes and Noble, or your favorite bookseller. Paperback | 9781640659506 | List Price: $24.95 |

In new formation partnership, Episcopal Church and Forward Movement launch sacraments video seriesAs The Episcopal Church continues to redefine its formation and evangelism efforts to serve the needs of dioceses, it has produced a new video series about the sacraments in collaboration with Forward Movement. The three 20-minute-long videos—in English with Spanish subtitles—are ideal for newcomer classes, adult formation, and those preparing for confirmation.
The series comes with study guides designed for group discussion and learning and will be released in March. The first video, “Signs and Grace: An Introduction to the Sacraments,” provides an overview. The other two videos focus on baptism and the Eucharist. View a promotional video about the series.
