Synopsis

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 listeners 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. This book is both an educational resource as well as a practical "how-to" guide for navigating simple everyday challenges as well as deeper difficulties.

Solidly grounded in biblical truth, the book covers topics such as work, home life, conflict, and intimacy. It offers understandable explanations of God's design, healthy expectations that reframe experiences, and relatable applications that women of faith can practice to influence their marriage and deepen their relationship with God. Ultimately, Finding the Hero in Your Husband, Revisited will help a wife more clearly see and encourage the hero within her husband by examining her own heart.

Thank you to Health Communication Inc and NetGalley for allowing me to read this book. My thoughts are my own. As a word of introduction, I first heard Dr. Slattery on a radio broadcast. Since then, I've listened to her podcast and read several of her books. In fact, I jumped at the chance to read F......more

Goodreads review by Caitlin on August 14, 2021

I've read many marriage books written from the Christian perspective, and most range from shallow and unhelpful to theologically suspect or outright harmful.

Goodreads review by Leah on January 16, 2025

This was an excellent book. It got off track sometimes (in a good way), delving into general—often psychological—differences between men and women, which helped support the topics and messages of each chapter and the greater topic of the book. Rarely do I find cases of psychology in Christian books......more
