"Sexy Christians." The phrase sounds like an oxymoron, but God
never intended it to be. Sexual fulfillment is, in fact, God's
idea. Yet many Christians seem to think the more spiritual they
are, the less sexual they will be, and the more sexual they are,
the less spiritual they will be. Dr. Ted and Diane Roberts want to
turn this thinking on its head.
Readers will learn why men and women see sex differently, what the
greatest aphrodisiac is, and how to avoid the most lethal killer to
a great sex life. The authors also explore what men's and women's
sexual needs are and why they are so different, what sex is all
about from God's perspective, and what the differences are between
male and female sexual response cycles. End-of-chapter questions
encourage couples to apply the book's principles at home.
Readers and groups can go a step further with the Sexy
Christians Workbook. Loaded with additional content, this
workbook is designed to challenge couples to explore the rewarding
work of intimacy.
