5 Stars Very Helpful! an Awesome Book
This book was Great, not only did it keep my interest, but it was very helpful and i would sudjest it to any married couple (with or without relational struggles). This book gives great advice, and has many strong points giving the reader an understanding as well as a level of relation as many of the situations the reader will be able to relate too. Buy the book or Borrow it! it's an important part of every marriage.

5 Stars WOW!
What an incredible book! This was required reading for a counseling course but it's purpose served more than that. Roseneau does an incredible job of communicating how beautiful & sacred an intimate relationship with your spouse should be. God created man and woman to please one another in many ways in addition to intercourse and this book does a great job of instructing couples how to deepen their sexual intimacy.This is definitely worth your money! Roseneau also has a Newlywed version and an over 50 version.

5 Stars Breaking Out of Christian Frigidness
Having grown up in a conservative Christian context, sexual activities apart from the Missionary Position were often tainted by feelings of guilt. This book helped to embrace my sexuality and get rid of my baggage of Christian frigidness.

But be warned: In this book you will be encouraged to touch yourself, to explore and play, and to – yes – actually *celebrate* sex without a guilty conscience. The book even includes hand-drawn pictures of various positions, which, though nothing extraordinary for sex guides in general, might almost be revolutionary for the conservative Christian.

The book also helped my wife and me to openly *talk* about the details of sex, about our own sexual feelings or lack thereof, etc.

For the non-religious reader, this book is possibly still too unprogressive and has too many references to an Evangelical worldview, but it's a great tool for liberating Christians from sexual legalism and undue guilt.

5 Stars Celebrate God's Gift of Sex; A Tremendous Christian Resource
As a professional in the field I whole heartedly recommend to you Dr. Doug Rosenau's landmark work "A Celebration of Sex". While there are a number of books written on the subject of sexuality from a Christian perspective, there are very few that address the subject with the level of insight, clinical accuracy, and Biblical soundness as Dr. Rosenau's work. If you struggle with sexual difficulties in your marriage, are on the path of recovery from sexual abuse/ rape, or just could use some good, Godly, information about the sexual part of your life: THIS BOOK will HELP you. Doug is not only a tremendous author and skilled Christian Sex Therapist, but a quality man of integrity as well. You can also find resources at [...]

5 Stars Excellent Resource
This book is a great tool for married couples. It brings clarity to questions and issues that may otherwise go unexplored due to emparassment or fear. It has given a fresh perspective to a loving relationship and a sense of wholeness. I would highly recommend it to couples who want to increase communication with one another and to couples who are newly married.
