From the bestselling author of Marriage on the Rock, Four Laws of Love represents the culmination of Jimmy Evans’ influential career. In this deeply personal book, Jimmy Evans outlines the foundational pillars upon which God designed marriage. Without holding back, he tells the story of his own marriage, which was hurtling toward divorce until this self-proclaimed “bad husband” came to recognize and put into practice these four laws. This book sounds a wake-up call for every kind of marriage, including those that are barely surviving and those that seem to operate on autopilot. Couples who follow these simple guidelines ― recognizing the original intent and purpose of marriage―will inject new life into their unions. They’ll see hurting marriages find healing and watch good marriages become great. Each revitalized relationship will play a part in restoring marriage to its sacred role at the center of human civilization

Establishing Priorities in Marriage:

To set priorities, Jimmy Evans offers three tangible and practical action items:

• Make a List: Identify the most critical priorities in your life and order them accordingly.
• Prove Your Priorities: Demonstrate your priorities in noticeable and consistent ways.
• Protect Your Priorities: Commit to safeguarding your priorities for the rest of your life.

It’s one thing to make a list of priorities, but real change comes through consistent action. Here’s an example of a priority list in marriage:

• God
• Spouse
• Children and grandchildren
• Ministry
• Church
• Friendships
• Relaxation (retreat/Sabbath/rest)
• Recreation / Interests
