In an update of the groundbreaking original title, Dr. Juli Slattery illuminates the power of women in marriage, with an emphasis on the uniqueness of a woman’s capacity to build intimacy. Finding the Hero in Your Husband, Revisited, is an invaluable resource for Christian wives in any season of marriage. From the newlywed navigating the fading honeymoon period, to the wife decades in who isn’t sure how things got so predictable, to the empty nester who finds herself wondering how to communicate with her husband again. In an update of her bestselling original book, acclaimed clinical psychologist and speaker Dr. Juli Slattery gently guides readers through topics that are inherently woven into every imperfect marriage. She uses sound theology to challenge and correct misconceptions and outright misinformation taught by the larger culture as well as the church.

Pulling Back the Shades

Many Christian books talk about sexual issues within broader works on marriage, but few resources comprehensively and biblically guide couples specifically on sexual intimacy. God, Sex, and Your Marriage challenges the common assumptions couples have about sexuality and presents the richer biblical narrative of sex as a metaphor of God’s covenant love. Dr. Juli Slattery applies that biblical framework to the practical challenges in sexual intimacy. Godly sexuality extends far beyond sexual purity and calls us to sexual integrity. God invites every couple to view their sexual relationship, including their greatest struggles, as an avenue to learn about the nature of His covenant love. It’s God desire to make us more like Himself and sex within marriage is often a powerful training ground for godly character. That desire gives purpose and context to addressing pornography, healing from past wounds, sexual incompatibility, pursuing pleasure together, and forgiveness.

God, Sex, and Your Marriage

Acreditamos que o lançamento da série Cinquenta tons de cinza foi um momento transformador que deu início à onda de literatura erótica, normalizando seu uso. A série fez pelas mulheres e pela literatura erótica o que a internet fez pelos homens e pela pornografia. Queremos não somente colocar de lado os tons de cinza para que a verdade de Deus fique clara para você sobre o que este e outros livros semelhantes podem causar a sua vida, mas desejamos também tirar sua vida sexual das sombras. Deixando de lado os tons de cinza não é apenas uma mera reação à série de livros. O assunto aqui é VOCÊ – seus anseios, suas perguntas e sua integridade como uma mulher espiritual e sexual. Embora Cinquenta tons tenha mudado o cenário sexual para muitas mulheres, oramos para que este livro seja também uma virada no jogo – trazendo esperança e cura através do poder da verdade de Deus.

Erotismo, intimidade e os anseios do coração de uma mulher

Deixando de lado os tons de cinza

A study on sex that goes beyond "just don't do it." Whereas most sexuality studies for singles focus solely on purity--simply offering a "don't do it" or "just wait" message--Sex and the Single Girl presents a broader understanding of what it means to honor God with our sexuality. This resource will equip single women to understand their sexuality, trust the Lord for redemption and healing, and stand against the cultural trends that marginalize and compromise sexuality. Juli Slattery, a clinical psychologist and cofounder of Authentic Intimacy, has devoted the last five years of her life to equipping women with God's truth about sexuality. Here she drives home the truth that every sexual choice is also a spiritual choice. The six-week study is broken down into five days for each week, prompting study and reflection. The weeks cover: Why Sexuality Matters: Shows the connection between spirituality and sexuality Embracing a Grand Design: Explores God's design and the beauty of living according to His wisdom. Sexuality and Your Character: Helps women think through how their sexuality is part of their worship and Christian identity. Sexual Boundaries: A very practical chapter providing a biblical grid for matters like masturbation, oral sex, and how far is too far to go in a dating relationship. Battling Temptation: Takes a peak at "the enemy's playbook" to help women anticipate, prepare for, and stand against sexual temptation. Restoring Intimacy with God: Shows how God can tear down the wall of sexual sin, shame, and confusion through forgiveness and redemption. This study has been tested through pilot groups with college women and other 20somethings. Revised according to their feedback, it is primed and ready to help any single woman think biblically about sexuality, live accordingly, and experience the joy and freedom of doing so. This study is especially relevant today. One of the greatest threats to the modern church and emerging adults is the distortion of sexual design. Study after study has documented the proliferation of porn use (among both men and women), sexual exploitation on college campuses, experimentation with homosexuality and bi-sexuality, and the acceptability of multiple sexual partners. The average single Christian has received very little teaching on the purpose of sexuality, and a simple "Just wait until you're married" approach won't cut it. Christian singles need to be equipped with a biblical worldview of sexuality and practical tools for talking it out. This study, which Slattery created with two women familiar with curriculum development, is ideal for college campuses and small groups. It will prompt discussions on practical topics like sexual temptation, sexual conduct, and responding to cultural thinking on gender issues and sexual autonomy. It is designed to challenge women to examine the assumptions underlying their sexual behaviors and beliefs. The ultimate goal of this resource is to introduce women to an intimate relationship with God who cares about every aspect of her life.
