For married women only!: how to have a nipple orgasm
From healthline (Use caution if visiting website). Your nipples are erogenous zones A lot of what we see in pop culture suggests that the only way women can orgasm is by stimulating the vaginal area. But that’s not true — not by a long shot. It’s possible for a woman to orgasm without ever touching…
The three categories of relationships
I recently read Sex, Dating, and Relationships: A Fresh Approach by Gerald Hiestand and Jay Thomas. It’s a highly recommended read. According to Hiestand and Thomas, the Bible only presents three categories of relationships between any two human beings. We have the: Neighbor relationship (sex prohibited) Family relationship (sex prohibited) Marriage relationship (sex commanded) They also…
Do not deprive her
Do not deprive one another, except perhaps by agreement for a limited time, that you may devote yourselves to prayer; but then come together again, so that Satan may not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. 1 Corinthians 7:5 ESV https://bible.com/bible/59/1co.7.5.ESV It’s easy to miss this implicit command. We often neglect and disregard…
Surprise finding in response to nipple stimulation
From a CBS article Researchers at Rutgers University have mapped the brain areas in women that respond to stimulation of the genitals WILEY PUBLISHING/BARRY KOMISARUK For many women, nipples are erogenous zones. A new study may explain why: The sensation from the nipples travels to the same part of the brain as sensations from the…
Keller – the gospel and sexuality
The moralist tends to see sex as dirty or at least a dangerous impulse that leads constantly to sin. There will be an approach-avoidance relationship with sex. The uneasy conscience of the moralist will lead to either complete avoidance OR to a very driven, breathless need for sexual experience. Both come from a glory-vacuum within,…
Dictional laziness
When most people slap the word “fetish” on our desire, what they really mean is “kink.” There’s a tendency to be lazy with all word choices and I thinks this reflects poor vocabulary in our culture. Our failure to distinguish and discern variations between words causes many to mislabel this relationship because “fetish” rolls off the tongue…
Good sex means loving your spouse sacrificially
Sex isn’t about learning skills or being gratified, but about loving a person. Putting their needs above yours. I sometimes get anxious and try to micromanage my future sex life. “What if she won’t do this or that?” I often ask myself. Now I’ve realized that it’s not about me “getting mine” or being focused…
Have sex everyday
I have a friend that’s been a believer not quite as long as I have, yet unbelievably godly and mature. While discussing God’s plan for marital intimacy one day, he said the failure to have frequent sex is one of the primary ways with which Satan attacks marriages, couples grow distant, and eventually become just…
What If God Really Meant For Us to Have Freedom in the Bedroom?
From Sheila Wray Gregoire’s blog To Love, Honor & Vacuum. When it comes to sex, do you see God’s commands as being about making you do something you don’t want to do? I think that’s often the way we see things like 1 Corinthians 7:3-5–the “do not deprive each other” passage. That’s certainly the way…
Forbidden sexual practices and the call to holiness
Note how uncovering a person’s nakedness is exactly identical to uncovering the nakedness of the person’s spouse. The two really do become one flesh. New King James Version (NKJV) Laws of Sexual Morality 18 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘I am the Lord your…
KJV footnote: Let her breasts water thee at all times
“Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love.” Proverbs 5:19 KJV http://bible.com/1/pro.5.19.KJV KJV notes: satisfy…: Heb. water thee be thou…: Heb. err thou always in her love
He grazes among the lilies
She 2 My beloved has gone down to his garden to the beds of spices, to graze[a] in the gardens and to gather lilies. 3 I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine; he grazes among the lilies. 16 My beloved is mine, and I am his; he grazes[a] among the lilies.

Sex is bad and dirty, pretend it doesn’t exist.
From my experiences, that seems to be the general sentiment among 75% of conservative evangelicals.
What’s my reason?
I had planned to post an article listing my reasons for wanting an ANR but my co-author’s post was a catalyst. So what are my reasons? Not gonna lie, the kink factor/sexual gratification is definitely a big one for me, and I’m sure most male readers could relate. There’s just something about full, productive, milky…
Let her breasts soak you at all times … but let her joy and pleasure be your ultimate aim
The world likes to twist Scriptural truths. They’d like to have us think sex is all about us but one of the main reasons God gave us such a powerful gift is not to get our rocks off. It’s to serve our spouse. By putting their needs above ours. Our reciprocal pleasure should only be…
He put his hand through the keyhole
My beloved put his hand through the keyhole. My heart throbbed for him. – Song of Solomon 5:4 My. Beloved. Put. His. Hand. Through. The. KEYHOLE. That had me like “ 😃 Ooooooooh, thank you Jesus! Please, won’t you please send me my dear Mrs. soon, so I could love her sacrificially… and um, put…
Song of Solomon 8
If only you were my brother, one who nursed at my mother’s breasts. If I saw you on the street, I would kiss you, and no one would look down on me. 2 I would lead you. I would bring you into my mother’s house. (She is the one who was my teacher.) I would…
Song of Solomon 7
[The chorus of young women] 7 How beautiful are your feet in their sandals, noble daughter! The curves of your thighs are like ornaments, like the work of an artist’s hands. 2 Your navel is a round bowl. May it always be filled with spiced wine. Your waist is a bundle of wheat enclosed in…
Why such irreverence? Isn’t the gospel infinitely more important?
Some people find this blog by googling things like “is it sinful to breastfeed my husband?”, and I received this on Wednesday on my Facebook page: “I CANNO’T UNDERSTAND CHRIST CENTERED ANR.HOW CAN LOVE FOR BOOBS AND LOVE FOR CHRIST GO TOGETHER?” It may seem to many that I am preaching a sexualized form of…

Song of Solomon 4
Solomon Is Charmed by the Young Woman [Groom] Look at you! You are beautiful, my true love. Look at you! You are so beautiful. Your eyes behind your veil are like doves. Your hair is like a flock of goats moving down Mount Gilead. 2 Your teeth are like a flock of sheep about to…

Why this blog is necessary

How to get more action from her, biblically
A sexual how-to may seem strange coming from a single guy. However, as a Christian musician once said, experience is the teacher of fools. True believers gain wisdom and understanding from God’s Word. Although I’ve never been married, from reading the Bible daily for years, including relevant portions like Ephesians 5 and the Song of Solomon, in addition…
