Christian Sexuality

Many couples struggle with intimacy but some may need resources focused specifically on Christian sexuality.  Christian couples may have waited until marriage before beginning their sexual relationships and they may believe certain sexual activities are sinful.

Sometimes people who were raised in the purity culture find it difficult to embrace sex after they are married.  Couples who had sex before marriage may also struggle with guilt.   These clients will often be most receptive to books written from a religious standpoint.  Titles like The Good Girl’s Guide to Great Sex or the Mingling of Souls that approach Christian sexuality from a perspective grace and emphasize God’s plan for couples to enjoy intimacy may be especially helpful.

 

The Song of Solomon offers strikingly candid—and timeless—insights on romance, dating, marriage, and sex. We need it. Because emotions rise and fall with a single glance, touch, kiss, or word. And we are inundated with songs, movies, and advice that contradicts God’s design for love and intimacy.

Matt Chandler helps navigate these issues for both singles and marrieds by revealing the process Solomon himself followed: Attraction, Courtship, Marriage … even Arguing. The Mingling of Souls will forever change how you view and approach love

The Good Girl’s Guide to Great Sex: (And You Thought Bad Girls Have All the Fun) by Sheila Wray Gregoire

Do bad girls really have more fun? Surveys say no. The women who are most likely to enjoy sex are married and religious. In other words, they’re Good Girls! But good girls know that making sex great isn’t about acting trashy. It’s about recognizing what God really designed sex for, and then learning how to reap all these benefits and joyfully enjoy your husband.

Frank and contemporary, The Good Girls’ Guide to Great Sex will give the newly engaged and new brides—and some veteran wives—a Christian place to turn to answer their most intimate, and embarrassing, questions. In a conversational style, with lots of humorous anecdotes, the book will explain that sex isn’t just physical; it’s also an emotional and spiritual experience. And we’ll learn why commitment in a Christian marriage is the perfect recipe for a sex life which is out of this world!

Sheet Music is written for the Christian couple that wants to learn about sex together or is struggling sexually.  You can read our review here.
