Sex and Marriage: Unlocking and Restoring the Power of Sex Through Biblical and Psychological Insight

In Sex and Marriage, Chris Legg and Mark Legg combine biblical teaching, psychological research, and decades of counseling experience to explore the role of sexual intimacy in a healthy marriage. The authors move beyond common cultural messages and misconceptions about sex, encouraging couples to understand intimacy as something designed to bring connection, joy, vulnerability, and mutual enjoyment to marriage. Rather than treating sex as a transaction or something one spouse gives in exchange for something else, the book invites couples to see sexual intimacy as an important part of a loving, mutually connected relationship.

The book addresses practical issues that can affect intimacy, including misunderstandings between spouses, differences in desire, stress, communication, and the ways couples can become disconnected over time. Drawing on both Scripture and psychological insight, Legg and Legg offer practical guidance for cultivating greater understanding and restoring intimacy within marriage. Sex and Marriage is intended for couples at various stages of their relationship, including those preparing for marriage and those who want to deepen or rebuild their connection.
