Revised edition of Sex and Marriage
Out now!
Sex and Marriage: Unlocking and Restoring the Power of Sex through Biblical and Psychological Insight is my passion project two years in the making. It condenses over two decades of counseling and teaching experience on romance, love, marriage, and, of course, sex, into a book.
In Sex and Marriage, we cover how to cultivate sexual intimacy, why spouses misunderstand each other about sex, and practical ways to restore the beautiful, free, joyful, and powerful sex lives God wants for us. We accomplish this through psychological research, biblical study, and practical application in a readable, informal tone that we think you’ll enjoy.
John Trent, one of my heroes in Christian counseling, kindly wrote this endorsement:
“This updated edition of Chris and Mark Legg’s book is the one I’m handing every couple who goes through our premarital training at StrongFamilies.com. That’s for so many reasons. Like it’s eminently readable (thank you Mark), well balanced in speaking to both men and women, decidedly biblical, clinically up to date and full of ‘I get that’ wisdom on how [intimacy] in marriage is not some bargain to be worked out. It’s a bond they can build over years to draw and keep you together. But it does something else you need to know. It helps couples understand how to come safely, wonderfully back home in terms of intimacy.”
John Trent, PhD, bestselling author of The Blessing
We were blessed enough to have two of the most insightful people in the field, Shaunti and Jeff Feldhahn, write our forward. They’re the bestselling authors of For Men Only and For Women Only and a major inspiration for our work. They graciously wrote,
“[A] remarkable book . . . Chris and Mark show an amazing gift for synthesizing big thoughts and research studies into actionable insights.”
Shaunti & Jeff Feldhahn, bestselling authors of For Women Only and For Men Only
We pray this book will bless your marriages (and future marriages!)
God Bless!
