Comments from people who have used this material:
While some choose to acquiesce to modern redefinitions of male-female roles, and others hang on to worn assumptions forged from prejudice, Rocking the Roles compels both sides to think again. Lewis and Hendricks have created a 'must read' for every ordained person and every couple who have exchanged sacred vows."
- Tim Kimmel, author of Legacy of Love and Little House on the Freeway This book will challenge your assumptions about traditional marriage.

Description
The traditional marriage was never the Biblical marriage.

Ozzie and Harriet are gone. And with them, the idea that the traditional marriage is the only right way. Yet, today's couples are also discovering that the "roleness" marriage in which everything is equal, with no distinction between male and female, isn't all that satisfying either.

Rocking the Roles examines what the Bible really has to say about the male and female roles. A far cry from the restrictions of the traditional marriage or the formlessness of modern marriage, this approach offers a perfect blend of structure and equality, balance and beauty.

If you want a marriage in which fairness, justice, respect, and support operate equally between you and your partner, it's time for Rocking the Roles - and for discovering God's radical, inspired, and timeless design for a lasting marriage.
