His Precious Bride Jon Bonker

Short devotional writings on Christ and the church, His beloved bride. The book begins with looking at the example of the beloved puritan pastor Christopher Love and his wife Mary, their single-eyed devotion to Christ and love for one another in the context of martyrdom. The ensuing devotionals flesh out the question, "If husbands are to love their wives as Christ did the church, how exactly has Christ loved His bride? " And secondly, "What are the duties of the bride of Christ to her heavenly Husband? " The short work is a melding together of thoughts from the Scriptures upon marriage, martyrdom, and missions.
