Divorce and Remarriage

In this powerful and uncompromising work, Dr Charles Elias Mahlangu presents a comprehensive theological response to the growing epidemic of divorce within the Christian community. He offers a compelling diagnosis of the causes and dynamics at play, exposing the Church's failure to properly prepare and equip couples for lasting marriages. This book calls Church leaders to account, urging them to repent of the permissive attitudes that have contributed to the breakdown of families. Dr Mahlangu addresses the issue at its root—leadership—where compromise and silence have led to devastating consequences. He reminds readers that spouses, as parents and leaders in the home, are central to the health of the Church. Challenging the Church's departure from biblical teaching, Divorce and Remarriage exposes the hypocrisy and social fallout of straying from God's design for marriage. Yet it also offers hope—providing biblical and practical remedies to help couples embrace God's power for enduring, unbreakable unions. Dr Mahlangu holds a PhD from Talbot School of Theology in the USA and was ordained by the Evangelical Church of Southern Africa. Together with his wife, Delores, he has been building marriages and counselling couples since 1980. They are members of The Freeway Tabernacle in Soweto, South Africa.
