"No one brings together the spiritual and sexual parts of marriage in as clear and meaningful a way as the McCluskeys."--Drs. David and Jan Stoop, authors of The Complete Marriage Book  
  
Sexual issues are often cited as one of the primary reasons for marital conflict and divorce. Finally, a book for Christian husbands and wives that blends the physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and relational aspects of marriage with the sexual. Much more than a how-to book on better sex, this practical, detailed resource offers a vision of lovemaking that facilitates a deeper experience of intimacy on all planes of marriage.   
  
The book's most unique feature is The Lovemaking Cycle--an innovative model that captures the heart of truly making love (as contrasted with simply having sex). The model suggests a picture of God's three-dimensional plan for sexual union and provides a powerful tool for identifying problem areas that can threaten the beauty of that plan.   
  
Whether you are newly married or have been wed for decades, now is the time to ignite the intimate, passionate love God created you to enjoy!
