Divorce. No one likes it, but it doesn't go away. Even among
Christians, the divorce rate continues to climb. How should
Christians approach this issue? May Christians ever legitimately
divorce? If they divorce legitimately, may they remarry? Not
everyone who appeals to Scripture agrees on how we should
understand what it says about divorce and remarriage. In this
Spectrum Multiview volume, four authors present their distinct
perspectives. Carl Laney argues that the Bible indicates that
marriages are always intended to be permanent, that there is never
a need for divorce and that remarriage is never permissible after
divorce. William Heth contends that while there are legitimate
biblical grounds for divorce, there are no legitimate grounds for
remarriage after divorce. Thomas Edgar defends the position that
Scripture allows for divorce and remarriage in cases of adultery or
desertion. Larry Richards holds that Scripture, while decrying
divorce and the pain it causes, points to a God of grace who will
not condemn those who divorce and remarry. Such a sensitive debate
cannot remain abstract, so a case study accompanies each position,
followed by critical responses from each essayist. The result is a
thoughtful, helpful resource for all who wish to think biblically
about a crucial issue confronting the church. Spectrum Multiview
Books offer a range of viewpoints on contested topics within
Christianity, giving contributors the opportunity to present their
position and also respond to others in this dynamic publishing
format.
