We are all responsible for communicating the biblical truth regarding divorce and marriage. But in today's world, teachings concerning divorce are diverse and often uncertain. Close examination of the biblical references to marriage and divorce, and understanding the gospel with its promise of forgiveness, provide a clear path to follow. This work has been commissioned by the Nazarene General Assembly and may be the most comprehensive work ever written on the subject.
