Surviving a Spiritual Mismatch in Marriage

By: Lee Strobel, Leslie Strobel

Narrated by: Giovanni/Rebecca Cordiferro/Rogers, Giovanni Cordiferro, Rebecca Rogers

Someone came between Lee and Leslie Strobel, threatening to shipwreck their marriage. No, it wasn't an old flame. It was Jesus Christ.

Leslie's decision to become a follower of Jesus brought heated opposition from her skeptical husband. They began to experience conflict over a variety of issues, from finances to child-rearing. But over time, Leslie learned how to survive a spiritual mismatch. Today they're both Christians--and they want you to know that there is hope if you're a Christian married to a nonbeliever.

In their intensely personal and practical book, they reveal:

• Surprising insights into the thinking of non-Christian spouses
• A dozen steps toward making the most of your mismatched marriage
• Eight principles for reaching out to your partner with the gospel
• Advice for raising your children in a spiritually mismatched home
• How to pray for your spouse--plus a 30-day guide to get you started
• What to do if you're both Christians but one lags behind spiritually
• Advice for single Christians to avoid the pain of a mismatch

Loved it

The book has made me see issues I need to look into, questions I need answered.

very encouraging and useful!

I really appreciated how Lee and Leslie took such a Christ-like stance on loving your non-christian spouse. This is not a spouse conversion strategy book, but rather it was practical and encouraging collection of stories and advice for Christians going through a spiritual mismatch. It was such a blessing for me and probably many others going through the same thing!

Could have been better.

went to sleep during the last chapter.
wasn't Lee Strobel narrarating. it was pretty good, though.

Good book for the unequally yoked

this book was helpful in letting me know the ways I was walking with God and ways I need help to live as Christ intends for a pairing such as this

Very encouraging!

A spiritual mismatch marriage is actually a blessing to the believer. God is faithful and He listens to our prayers. The time will come, according to His will and wisdom. In the time between, is His training for love and patience for the believer.
