Playful Practice: Exploring God's Love in Christian Sexuality

Between social stigma and personal shame, it's often difficult to come to terms with humankind's more base desires, particularly for those in the Christian faith. In his first book, Roy M. Myers, PhD, DMin, examines how we can redefine those expectations-to help couples improve intimacy in marriage as a means to start being more spiritual.Playful Practice: Exploring God's Love in Christian Sexuality posits that, far from opposing forces, spirituality and sexuality are inextricable from one another. Passionate and fulfilling sex lives can (and should) coexist with one's faith. Whether you're working to learn the Bible's teachings together or experimenting behind closed doors, experiencing God as a couple strengthens both your beliefs and your bond.Drawing from biblical theology, interviews with husbands and wives, and his own pastoral experience, Myers proposes ways to explore love and sexual intimacy with your partner. This guide aims to heal taboos by encouraging open dialogue, and embracing how relationships make us grow with each other and with God."Sexuality is part of God's design for human flourishing," Myers explains. And there is no room for shame in the divine.
