Bring greater satisfaction to your relationship in every way--emotionally, spiritually, and physically--whether you're preparing for your honeymoon or are empty nesters looking for a new spark.

Are you wondering if there's more to your sex life than the status quo? Or maybe you have questions about your upcoming marriage that aren't exactly appropriate for the rehearsal dinner? This edition of The Good Girl's Guide to Great Sex from tell-it-like-it-is blogger and speaker Sheila Wray Gregoire has been completely updated and expanded to include new research from surveys of more than twenty-five thousand people. With humor, stories, and highly practical ideas, Sheila helps you:

• See how God intends sex to unite couples physically, emotionally, and spiritually--and how to overcome roadblocks in each area
• Understand more about your two bodies and how they were meant to go together
• Find healing from past sexual experiences, sexual trauma, or pornography addiction
• Figure out the missing piece in your sex life that often makes pleasure out of reach
• Learn how to help your husband give you greater pleasure than ever before
• Embrace sex with freedom, rather than viewing it with shame or embarrassment

• Newly engaged couples who want to start their marriage out right
• Married couples who wonder if sex will ever become what they'd hoped it would be
• Followers of Sheila's marriage blog and bestselling books

Reviews for The Good Girl's Guide to Great Sex

[Krissy · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Amazing book and really helped me. So much great information and insight. I wish I had a book like this years ago.

[Sheila Nolt · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Great book, now I wish I had this book 16 years ago before I got married instead of some of the not so helpful Christian ones I read before our wedding!

Okay, I never ever leave a one star review on a book, but y’all this book is garbage! Very single minded in relation to sex. I had flashbacks from catholic school.

I initially thought well maybe 13-15 year old girls would read this, but the more it went on the more ridiculous it spieled. For instance, it said good girls should not get boys or men worked up because it stated the good girl is ENDANGERING the male whom she works up!! A bunch of crap!

Plus it was so stereotypical stating how men and women feel completely different about sex and of course the women is always cleaning and cooking.

Hello!! We are 2021…DO NOT READ THIS BOOK! There are many other Christian Sex books out there that is based on facts and not just people they asked at church.

Okay, at first, I was really scandalized that Zondervan, the Christian book and Bible publisher, was releasing a book like this. But, after the shock was gone, I was curious how they'd pull this off. Was it really a guide or more of an improve your relationship/advice book?

Turns out, it's a little bit of both and it's tastefully done. Part of it is a guide for soon-to-be-married or newly-wed, inexperienced Christian gals. Part of it focuses on relationship and physical issues that may arise years down the road. The book carefully balances not only the physical needs of a marriage, but the emotional and spiritual needs as well.

For some Christian denominations, the author's viewpoints may be more modern and liberated than what they traditionally teach. However, the author admits that her interpretations, such as Genesis 38 and Lev. 18:22, are what she thinks. She isn't pushy or preachy about it, and recommends couples stick with what they are comfortable with.

I think it'd make a fun bridal shower gift!
