Naked without Shame: A Most Perfect Relationship

By Kedrick Lilweti White

Some of the best answers in life are found in the simplicity of things. And coming to grips with a most perfect relationship man can ever know, that which exists between man and God, could initiate a serious paradigm shift with profound indications for life's toughest relationship. Naked without Shame presents God's original design for a man and his wife at the dawn of creation. It captures a picture of how love, belonging, and promise can be interrupted by forbidden desires and disobedience. But it also shows God's path for redemption and renewed hope through grace, God's unmerited favor to mankind.

Foreword

Ifeel especially honored to have been chosen to write the foreword for this book, Naked without Shame. In the broken and fallen world within which we exist, there are struggles of every kind, and especially in relationships. And it seems that marriage, which was so beautifully designed by God for our enjoyment and enrichment, suffers the most in our broken world.

Minister Kedrick Lilweti White has written so eloquently on what is packed into being Naked without Shame. He writes in a way that is thought provoking and engaging. He also stimulates and challenges couples to a sobering approach toward their marriage.

A godly husband and wife who read this material, whether together or individually, will walk away with a sense of personal accountability before God. It will inspire them to rethink and to readjust some of their deeply held positions and points of views in their marriage.

Naked without Shame helps the reader become Naked or transparent before God. This is the kind of material that makes you long for more. It is as if you are having a back-and-forth conversation with the author. The whole while he's challenging you and not your spouse. And when dealing with your spouse, he challenges them and not you.

Naked without Shame is refreshing! It is insightful and motivational. If read with a sense of discernment and brokenness, it could lead to healing and restoration in many marriages.

In today's world of I, me, and myself centered-living, it takes a special grace of God to love and cherish one another for the long haul. That enduring grace is quite available.

You may read this book in just one setting, but I can assure you that it will leave you with a longing for more. You will find yourself recommending it to other couples and even sharing some of the ways you were enlightened.

Kedrick writes from a place of experience. He has been through the fire and the flood. He

writes as a believer to help navigate brothers and sisters through some of the storms of marital relationships. Let's glean from his wise counsel. He has much to say to the body of Christ.

We can expect to hear from him through future publications. Enjoy the book, and may it enrich your marriage and family.

Introduction

Throughout our lives, our day-to-day relationships and experiences are prep ground for marriages. We will mention some individual experiences resulting from the different types of human interactions that
