Description

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 Just because something is better for the group as a whole does not mean that it is better for you as an individual. Many Christians aren’t experiencing amazing, mind-blowing, earth-shattering sex.
#2 We surveyed over 20,000 women about their sex lives, marriages, beliefs about sex and marriage, and more. We wanted to find out what makes sex great, but also what can make it bad. We wanted to ask the question that the Christian world has failed to ask for decades: Does our evangelical advice actually work.
#3 The Bible says that sex is supposed to be pleasurable for both spouses, and that it should be prioritized in a marriage. But many Christians follow the Bible’s advice on sex, and as a result, many women feel they have to invite their husbands to have very one- sided sex.
#4 Sex was designed to be a gift freely given, not a tool for obtaining what you want through manipulation, coercion, or threat. It should put the other first, and be passionate.

Insights from Chapter 1

#1

Just because something is better for the group as a whole does not mean that it is better for you as an individual. Many Christians aren’t experiencing amazing, mind-blowing, earth-shattering sex.

#2

We surveyed over 20,000 women about their sex lives, marriages, beliefs about sex and marriage, and more. We wanted to find out what makes sex great, but also what can make it bad. We wanted to ask the question that the Christian world has failed to ask for decades: Does our evangelical advice actually work.

#3

The Bible says that sex is supposed to be pleasurable for both spouses, and that it should be prioritized in a marriage. But many Christians follow the Bible’s advice on sex, and as a result, many women feel they have to invite their husbands to have very one- sided sex.

#4

Sex was designed to be a gift freely given, not a tool for obtaining what you want through manipulation, coercion, or threat. It should put the other first, and be passionate.

#5

The beliefs that affect women’s marital and sexual satisfaction can be seen in figure 1. 1. These beliefs were impacted by the books and authors we discussed in The Great Sex Rescue.

#6

We wrote this book to help couples understand what’s holding them back from having great sex. We want to replace the harmful teachings about sex with ones focused on freedom, passion, and love.
Insights from Chapter 2

#1

Sex was created to be a deeply intimate act, not just a physical one. It was created to be a spiritual as well as emotional and physical knowing with your spouse.

#2

The problem with the word sex is that it is often used to describe intimacy. But are they always synonymous. Billions of people have had intercourse, but how many have made love.

#3

Sex should be about saying I want you, not just I want sex. It should be about saying I see you, and choosing you. It should be about building intimacy between you and your partner.

#4

Sex is not just about the physical aspect. It is also about the emotional connection between the partners, and many women reported that the emotional connection was even more important than the physical connection.

#5

When it comes to sex, the need for intimacy is the most important factor in determining whether or not it will save a marriage. If a couple doesn’t have that foundation of feeling valued and known, they cannot expect sex to create it.

#6

Sex cannot fix selfishness or laziness. It cannot fix an abusive relationship, cure an affair, or fix lust. It is dangerous to tell a reader to have sex with an abusive spouse.

#7

When you get married, the dynamic often shifts from dating to being supposed to do certain things. This can become a problem if you start viewing your spouse as a category instead of a person.
