Sex Chat for Christian Wives

This week's quickie is from Bonny Burns with three ways you can fan the flame of sexual interest. Follow-up with our webinars and/or stay tuned for more full episodes and quick tips about sex in marriage!

We all want to be wanted, and our husbands are no exception. Initiating sex is a great way to communicate "I want you" to your husband, but it isn't always easy.

• Why do wives sometimes find it difficult to even try to initiate sex?
• Some wives report that they do try to initiate sex but their husbands don't seem to pick up on the signals. What is going on?
• What are some things wives can do to initiate sex and get things rolling?

This episode was also sponsored in part by Honoring Intimates, lingerie & more!

From the Bible

Come, my beloved, let us go to the countryside, let us spend the night in the villages. Let us go early to the vineyards to see if the vines have budded, if their blossoms have opened, and if the pomegranates are in bloom— there I will give you my love. The mandrakes send out their fragrance, and at our door is every delicacy, both new and old, that I have stored up for you, my beloved. Song of Songs 7:11-13
