Modern Marriage and God is a self-help guidebook on the meaning of true marriage in our modern world. Marriage, like any other human institution, has changed and is continuing to change meaning from time to time. Do you want to know about marriage in Africa, and particularly in South Sudan?

In the newest country in the world, much is new, but not everything. Some ceremonies of long ago are still practiced, while new traditions are also being forged.

In Modern Marriage and God, you will read about:

• The traditional marriage process in a Dinka community of South Sudan.
• Other marriage processes introduced.
• The changes taking place in each of the various ways of marrying.
• The reasons for 'modern marriage' being the most common process.

The author compares each kind of marriage found in South Sudan with marriage as seen in the Bible. His main purpose is to encourage readers to make their marriage a true marriage, regardless of how it began.

Written by a national author, Modern Marriage and God is more than a religious textbook. The book points the readers to a world of discovery and decision making. It will inform non-Africans who work in this part of the world, and also encourage married couples and those who hope to marry.
