Playful Practice

Can Christian spouses enjoy active and indulgent sex lives and still live lives that honor Jesus? Many contemporary Christian couples struggle with this question, which drives some to walk away from the faith. Others lose all hope of having a satisfying sexual relationship. Playful Practice takes a novel look at Christian sexuality, arguing that couples can enjoy great sex while serving the Lord. It questions conventional wisdom, which approaches Christian sexuality as a matter of being either spiritual or sensual not both. Roy M. Myers, Ph.D., D.Min., a pastoral theologian who served as a military chaplain, educator, and leader in ministry for over thirty-three years, invites Christian couples to live in the tension between sacrificial love and indulgent love. He describes Biblical Christian sexuality as something built around God s love, and something that leads couples into the very presence of Christ. You can enjoy passion in your sex life with your partner, but it requires practicing in a way that pleases your partner and pleases God.
