What makes this book different from other marriage guides?
Two things set Love, Intimacy and Sex in the Second Half apart: its narrow focus on couples past the child-rearing years, and its willingness to address sex openly within a Christian framework. The Kimberlings also write from their own marriage rather than case studies, which gives the advice a confessional, been-there quality.
