God, Sex, and Your Marriage

Publisher's summary

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.

Great audiobook

I absolutely loved this audiobook version. As this topic has been something often discussed in our marriage, this book gave a great philosophical outline while still giving details on how to approach sex in your marriage.

I highly recommend this to anyone looking to make this area of your marriage better.

Game changer

Healing through a journey of what God intends for sex. The freedom and clarity this book gives is astounding. This is a game changer for us in our marriage. Ty Ty Ty

Biblical insight, not just into sexual intimacy,

but for a deeper vision of God's love woven throughout our lives. A different way of approaching intimacy with a God-first foundation. I'm excited to share this with others!

Highly Recommend

Having just finished Finding the Hero in your Husband I thought I wouldn’t get as much out of this one but I was so wrong!!! This is rich with wisdom and practical guidance!

Groundbreaking revelations for our marriage!

I was not prepared for how revelatory this book would be! I feel like I’m finally starting to understand the true design and nature of sexuality, and how it connects to God‘s love. It is already giving us so much more freedom in our marriage, and I can’t believe we have gone so long without this understanding. Definitely going to be one that I listen to again.

An unashamed look at God’s gift of sex and marriage.

Juli gently and tastefully brings clarity and truth to God’s gift of sex. She carefully gives a hopeful perspective of what sex is intended to be and how to navigate our often twisted perspectives brought by our past traumas, culture, and experiences. Her vulnerability and authenticity are a testament to the power of God’s work in our marriages and even in sex itself.

Beautifully written and very insightful

My husband and I love are reading this book together and we both love it. Most of the info in this book we've never heard said before. I love that it is full of practical tips and spiritual wisdom. I pla. to listen to it again to make sure all the knowledge sinks in. Thank you Juli and the AI team.

excellent!

As a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist, I believe that this book will be helpful!

One of the best books on this subject

I don’t write reviews but this gave me a new perspective on sex and marriage I had not heard before. I have already re-listened to parts of it several times. Definitely inspired by the Holy Spirit.

Something for Every Christian Couple

This book is so refreshing. There is an important role for technical books but this is both practical and theological. Good sex in marriage starts in understanding your relationship with God. Such a great book to read together with your husband/wife. It's serious but not dull, a fun conversation starter but never flippant or crass.

If you are not a Christian it may not all make sense but following its advice can help your marriage all the same.

Coming from someone who reads a new marriage book once a year for over 15 years of marriage, this one is a keeper.
