Love and Sex: A Christian Guide to Healthy Intimacy

De: Nancy Houston

Narrado por: Pamela Almand

Sex is a gift from God, created to bond a married couple and to reflect His nature. But it isn't always easy to navigate two bodies becoming one. About the time you think you have it figured out, something can challenge a couple to revisit its purpose. Sex is meant to be a beautiful, mutual celebration of husband and wife. However, sex, with all of its potential for pleasure, can be an area of pain and confusion.

With Love and Sex: A Christian Guide to Healthy Intimacy, sex therapist Nancy Houston offers listeners a frank and helpful discussion about sexual intimacy that includes guidance on experiencing and providing sexual pleasure, an analysis of how men and women experience sex differently, healing words for those who have experienced sexual embarrassment and pain, and powerful reminders that sex is celebrated and encouraged throughout scripture, and can be everything God created it to be.

what a wonderful, warm guide to healthy sexuality

This was a personal journey to healthy sexuality seen from the point of view of men and women of all ages. very helpful, uplifting and positive!

Realistic Heathy Perspective of Sexuality

Throughout the book, the author discusses the needs of each partner and addresses the hurts and harmful sexual patterns that can arise in marriage. The first three quarters of the book addresses harm from abuse or early exposure to sex that can create negative attitudes towards sexuality. The last part of the book is helpful for any marriage in growing healthy sexuality throughout the lifetime of a marriage.

Love the story mode of communicating crucial teaching points

Nancy uses a narrative approach in which the reader follows various characters through their journey to sexual healing and wholeness so it is easy to listen to, rather than feeling like a textbook or research article.

This is the first book that I read about sex and intimacy and I’ve been married for a couple of years.

With if without your spouse, this book will equip you to have a better intimacy and even encourage you in your own personal healing journey if any needed.
