Description

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 Christians, as a whole, have better sex and happier marriages than people who are not religious. But just because something is better for the group does not mean you, as an individual, think it’s anything to write home about.
#2 The orgasm gap exists between men and women, with 95 percent of men orgasming every time they have sex, while only 48 percent of women orgasm every time. This leaves many men who want to rock their wives’ worlds disappointed.
#3 Sex was designed to be pleasurable for both people. It was also designed to be personal, and to lead to deep intimacy. It should be prioritized in a marriage.
#4 Sex should be pressure-free, it should put the other first, and it should be passionate. If we agree with those principles, are the teachings and messages we hear supporting them. Or are they creating an image of sex that is diametrically opposed to the sacrificial, mutually pleasurable, and all-encompassing passion that God created sex to be.

Insights from Chapter 1

#1

Christians, as a whole, have better sex and happier marriages than people who are not religious. But just because something is better for the group does not mean you, as an individual, think it’s anything to write home about.

#2

The orgasm gap exists between men and women, with 95 percent of men orgasming every time they have sex, while only 48 percent of women orgasm every time. This leaves many men who want to rock their wives’ worlds disappointed.

#3

Sex was designed to be pleasurable for both people. It was also designed to be personal, and to lead to deep intimacy. It should be prioritized in a marriage.

#4

Sex should be pressure-free, it should put the other first, and it should be passionate. If we agree with those principles, are the teachings and messages we hear supporting them. Or are they creating an image of sex that is diametrically opposed to the sacrificial, mutually pleasurable, and all-encompassing passion that God created sex to be.

#5

We conducted interviews and focus groups to better understand our survey results and to show the people behind the statistics. We read and reviewed bestselling Christian sex and marriage books, as well as other foundational niche books that influence how women in the church view sex.

#6

We wrote this book to help couples rescue great sex. We want to replace teachings that try to bribe, coerce, or manipulate people with ones focused on freedom, passion, and most importantly, love.
Insights from Chapter 2

#1

Sex was created to be both a physically and emotionally intimate act. When all three types of intimacy are present, they work together to strengthen each other.

#2

Intimacy is not just limited to sex, and it is not just porn stars who confuse the two. When we treat intimacy and intercourse as if they are always synonyms, we fail to realize that they are not.

#3

Sex should be about saying, I want you, not just I want sex. It should be about saying, I see you. I choose you. I want to experience something with you, and only you.

#4

Sex is not just about the physical, but about the emotional as well. Be sure to check in with your partner about the balance between the emotional and physical sides of sex.

#5

When there is no foundation of feeling valued and known, sex divorced from intimacy can widen the chasm between two people. When women have legitimate emotional, and even physical, safety needs in their marriages that aren’t being met, they are told that having sex will fix things.

#6

Sex cannot fix any issues in your relationship. It is not just women who suffer from this message that sex alone can bring you close. Many husbands suffer from the belief that physical release alone is not enough to make them feel physically satisfied.
