"I have had an opportunity to share your book 'Divorce & The
Christian' with a friend who is considering separation-divorce. She has been
receptive to the counsel suggested in your book. Thank you for your work
and dedication to serving the Lord with your gifts, wisdom, and insight
into His word." J.W.
"While I was going through a rough time in my marriage, I purchased
your book 'Divorce & The Christian.' At that time I didn't
think your book was accurate. Probably because of my emotional pity party
I didn't want to have biblical references telling me I had no justification
for leaving a loving husband. Once I faced up to the truth, I returned.
I found a small church. The program director heard me praising your book
and asked if I'd write you. We have many young couples and few teens who
could benefit from your knowledge on the touchy subject of divorce."
S.D.
Divorce & The Christian drives home
to the reader the seriousness of the Scriptures concerning God's viewpoint.
"Dr. Plekker presents a Scripture-based view of marriage, divorce,
and remarriage. He deals forthrightly with the causes of divorce and explores
ways of preventing marital disruption by the healing and restoration available
in the love and grace of God. The author faces issues such as remarriage
after divorce in a way that should prove helpful to all who are concerned
about doing the will of God in such a situation." G. T.
"In his book 'Divorce & The Christian,' Robert Plekker goes beyond
John Murray's classic Divorce and presents an excellent chapter on restoring
the fallen Christian to fellowship in the church. He also speaks pointedly
and compassionately on the matter of church discipline, not excluding the
possibility of public confession as an aspect of restoration." Christianity
Today.
"I really appreciated your strong emphasis against seeking a divorce
originally, while at the same time, offering hope for the divorcee who is
a victim of someone else's rebellion against God. I commend you for this
good work. I think it will cast a great deal of light on a very timely and
important subject." Pastor T. L.
"I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed your book 'Divorce
& The Christian.' You have certainly been given the gift of teaching.
I am looking forward to reading it again a little slower." M.S.G.
