"Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it." — Ephesians 5:25

This isn’t just a command. It’s a cosmic key to covenant.

In this groundbreaking book, Dr. Jeremiah C. Hackley reveals a prophetic and practical model of marriage that flows directly from Christ’s love for the Church. Rooted in Ephesians 5:25 and the five ministry gifts of Christ (Ephesians 4:11), Five-Fold Marriage introduces a divine design where each role of Christ—Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor, and Teacher—reveals a love nature the husband is called to embody: Father, Lover, Friend, Husbandman, and Brother.

But this is not a one-sided revelation. As Christ loves the Church, the Church responds. In marriage, what the husband sows in love, the wife returns in glory. She becomes: Mother, Lover, Friend, Wife, and Sister—mirroring heaven’s harmony in the earth.

This book not only uncovers deep spiritual truths and prophetic insight but also offers clear, accessible teaching on emotional connection, spiritual leadership, marital intimacy, communication, generational blessing, and covenant structure. It is a guide for those who desire wholeness and oneness, not just ceremony and cohabitation.

If The Five Love Languages taught us how to speak love, Five-Fold Marriage teaches us how to become love—sacrificial, strategic, spiritual, and sustaining. It’s a must-read for couples, ministers, and families ready to rediscover marriage as ministry, leadership, and mutual elevation.
