An Impossible Marriage

"People say our marriage is impossible."

Laurie and Matt Krieg are in a mixed-orientation marriage: a marriage in which at least one partner''s primary attraction isn''t toward the gender of their spouse. In the Kriegs'' case, Laurie is primarily attracted to women-and so is Matt.

Some find the idea of mixed-orientation marriage bewildering or even offensive. But as the Kriegs have learned, nothing is impossible with God-and that''s as true of their marriage as anyone else''s. In An Impossible Marriage, the Kriegs tell their story: how they met and got married, the challenges and breakthroughs of their journey, and what they''ve learned about marriage along the way. Christianity teaches us that marriage is a picture of Jesus'' love for the church-and that''s just as true in a mixed-orientation marriage as in a straight one.

With vulnerability and wisdom, this book lays out an engaging picture of marriage in all its pain and beauty. It''s a picture that points us, over and over again, to the love and grace of Jesus-as marriage was always meant to do.
