About this listen

What if it's not your fault that sex is bad in your marriage?

Based on a groundbreaking in-depth survey of 22,000 Christian women, The Great Sex Rescue unlocks the secrets to what makes some marriages red hot while others fizzle out. Generations of women have grown up with messages about sex that make them feel dirty, used, or invisible, while men have been sold such a cheapened version of sex, they don't know what they're missing. The Great Sex Rescue hopes to turn all of that around, developing a truly biblical view of sex where mutuality, intimacy, and passion reign.

The Great Sex Rescue pulls back the curtain on what is happening in Christian bedrooms and exposes the problematic teachings that wreck sex for so many couples-and the good teachings that leave others breathless. In the #MeToo and #ChurchToo era, not only is this book a long overdue corrective to church culture, it is poised to free thousands of couples from repressive and dissatisfying sex lives so that they can experience the kind of intimacy and wholeness God intended.

Contains mature themes.

great teaching and wonderful Christmas like ideas

I liked the honesty and how unafraid it was to talk a out sex in a Christian context. The book has a very positive view of martial sex I don't find with alot of christian books. It a blessing and has helped open my eyes on what it takes to be a good Christmas like spouse to my future wife.

Single woman loved this book!

As a woman who desires to be married one day, I found this book extremely insightful and helpful in preparation for a healthy future marriage to understand some of the Christian hang-ups on this topic and how to avoid / overcome them. I would encourage my future spouse to read it, too.

Total game changer. Hands down the best book I’ve read in years.

I got engaged a few months ago and wanted to read some Christian marriage advise books (including Love & Respect) and went it a big spiral of marriage fear. I found this book as a bit of a last resort. Thank you. THANK YOU. I feel seen, heard, valued and have hope for my future marriage! I’ve shared the book with my sisters and my close friends - I cannot get enough of it. Thank you again!

Resonated with me but not sure what to do next

In every chapter of this book something resonated with me. It exposed and put into words unhelpful thought patterns I didn’t even realise I had but definitely do. My only criticism is that I feel like I don’t know what to do next - I feel like this book has pointed to the problem but not had enough focus on the answer and on hope for change! It’s more an exposing of the damage - which is important! But I have to say I have ended this book feeling discouraged. My damage is exposed but little is written on how to overcome it which has left me feeling unsettled. So much of the focus is on the mistakes of men and evangelical literature - and I don’t deny that there is a lot of truth behind it. But as the woman - I feel left with the sense that there is nothing I can do to change it - it’s up to my husband and powers that be to do the changing. So I don’t feel it has empowered me but rather made me feel like a victim. Where is the grace and hope for me? Do I really have to wait for others to repent before I can feel at peace in this area? Perhaps this is something I need to seek out for myself because I do know that God is in the business of hope and restoring x

Struggled to finish though a lot was promised.

Some good take away points but a lot of shallow assumptions feeling sorry for women overall. Mostly 'women are victim' mentality - greatest turn off for men reading it.
