Review # 1 was written on 2019-04-10 00:00:00 Kevin Goodes This would be a helpful book to begin during premarital counseling, but likewise valuable at other stages of marriage. Allender writes on page 20, "They [each person of the trinity] are distinct in being, coequal and different in function." which could be construed as pretty blatant heresy, but earlier he had written, "The Father, Son and Holy Spirit are coequal in their being..." (p.20). Obviously it cannot be both, but I imagine he intended 'being' to refer to their 'person' (hypostasis) in the former quote. Longman is a pretty solid theologian, so I am surprised that was missed. Even so, the book was great and includes six helpful studies at the end which would make this a very practical guide for a small group (or couple) study. There are other resources included with the book that can be downloaded online (though I haven't looked at that).
