Some people have suggested that a successful marriage requires tremendous insight to understand and super-human effort to achieve. Others contend that happy marriages are the purview of a lucky few. In this ground-breaking book, How To Love Your Wife, Dr. John Buri makes it clear he doesn’t agree: thriving marriages can actually be achieved through sensible effort by reasonable people. But because the majority of marriages in this country consist of unions in which wives are more heavily invested in marital success than are their husbands, much of this sensible effort by reasonable people needs to be consistently initiated and maintained by men. In fact, men often hold the keys to bringing about the type of loving marriage they had hoped for when they first said “I do.” In How To Love Your Wife, Dr. Buri makes these keys clear, understandable, and accessible.

He was the hot topic of conversation in His day. From angels to ardent disciples to bitter enemies, much was said of Jesus of Nazareth. The New Testament Gospels and Book of Acts record 114 conversations. They ranged from high praise to bitter denunciation. But did they really know what they were saying? Just like preaching and  teaching today, finite minds were attempting to express truth about an infinite God. In each case, there were implications of spiritual truth that they could not possibly understand. They were saying more than they knew.This book is an exploration of each of these conversations. In these pages, you will find inspiration, encouragement, and hope for daily living. More Than They Knew also contains resources for pastors and teachers, many drawn from the author’s own life and ministry experience.
