    "I highly recommend this insightful book to all married couples."--GARY CHAPMAN, PhD, author of The 5 Love Languages 
     
    Let's Talk about Sex 
     
    Most people are curious about sex and would love a few answers to questions such as:  
     
    ● Are we normal? 
    ● Why isn't my spouse as interested in sex as I am? 
    ● I don't want to feel pressured, but don't want to disappoint my spouse either--what do I do? 
    ● How do we handle the impact of medication, menopause, porn, ED, pain . . . ? 
    ● How can we get on the same page and create a thriving intimate life? 
     
    Sex is one of the most common marriage issues (for example, almost 80% of couples are mismatched in how often they want it), but it doesn't have to be that way. 
     
    Relationship researcher Shaunti Feldhahn and renowned sex therapist Dr. Michael Sytsma have identified eight simple, transformational factors to help you move from disconnection to delight. This is knowledge you can trust, based on vast clinical experience and their breakthrough research, including the largest nationally representative study ever conducted with married couples about sex.  
     
    This book is not a "sex manual"; it is a fascinating, practical field guide that will help you intimately understand your spouse and create the marriage you've always wanted.

    You've heard it your whole life: be like Jesus. 
      
    But what if being Christlike DOESN'T mean burning out, shrinking down, or holding it all together?

With warmth, depth, and a touch of sacred sass, this book explores how Jesus took care of His body, mind, and spirit—and what that means for women who feel like they're always the ones holding it all together. 
    Inside, you'll find 12 short chapters (each just a few pages) grounded in scripture and full of gentle reminders that:You don't have to earn your worthRest isn't selfish—it's sacredBoundaries are ChristlikeEmotions are holy groundAnd Jesus understands what it's like to be human 
    Whether you're overwhelmed, over giving, or just in need of a deep breath, Chill and Christlike is the devotional your spirit—and your nervous system—have been praying for

    The Prophets Isaiah and Ezekiel dined with me, and I asked them how they dared so roundly to assert that God spoke to them; and whether they did not think at the time that they would be misunderstood, and so be the cause of imposition. 
    Isaiah answer'd: `I saw no God, nor heard any, in a finite organical perception; but my senses discover'd the infinite in everything, and as I was then persuaded, and remain confirm'd, that the voice of honest indignation is the voice of God, I cared not for consequences, but wrote.' 
    Then I asked: `Does a firm persuasion that a thing is so, make it so?' 
    He replied: `All Poets believe that it does, and in ages of imagination this firm persuasion removed mountains; but many are not capable of a firm persuasion of anything.'
