The author explains how earlier insights from 1999 were shaped by a different cultural and technological landscape, and how modern dynamics—women’s empowerment, the #metoo movement, shifting views on sex and gender, and post-Christian perspectives—change how marriage truths land.

Juli has done a masterful job of weaving together personal narrative, biblical exposition, practical teaching, and prophetic illumination of God’s heart and divine design of man, woman, and the mystery of marriage. 􀀈ese pages held keys to understanding the ‘whys’ behind some of my own angsts, and helped me tangibly grasp some of the inner wirings of my husband’s complex and powerful design.
