"The Meaning of Marriage," by Tim Keller, does a good job addressing the role of marriage in Christian life. He includes the "gift of singleness," addressing where Paul says that he wishes people could be as he was; marriage is valuable, but some are not called to it.

Tim Keller's "The Meaning of Marriage" is a must read. Seriously, anyone who is married, plans to be married, or wants to be married someday ought to read this book.
Is your friend a Christian by any chance (just a guess from your username and the early age of marriage)? If so, you might recommend The Meaning of Marriage by Tim Keller. It provides a really interesting discussion of marriage from a Christian perspective and what it means for a husband AND wife to submit to each other, rather than it being a one-way thing.
It does seem very misleading. I definitely went in thinking she was gonna say something totally different than she did. On a side note, if anyone is really interested in reading more about this topic, and marriage in general, you should pick up Tim Keller's Meaning of Marriage. I just finished it and put marriage in a totally different light for me (I'm single). Highly recommend if you're interested in that sort of thing.
