A clinically grounded, theologically based guide to sex and connection for Christian couples seeking to joyfully enjoy intimacy without shame.

Loving, committed couples who care deeply about their marriage can feel confused, discouraged, or disconnected when it comes to intimacy. They have strong faith and genuine desire for closeness but were often not given clear sex education or a framework connecting body literacy, faith, and relational dynamics.

Kelsey, a pelvic health occupational therapist, and Larry, a pastor, bring together faith and evidence-informed sexual health education to offer couples practical encouragement anchored in emotional safety, consent, and whole-person connection. This thoughtful, tenderly empathetic resource walks couples through common challenges, such as desire differences, pain, unresolved conflict, past sexual wounds, and communication, and provides how-to guidance on deepening pleasure and connection.

"Reframing Intimacy is theologically honest, clinically grounded, and written with the kind of pastoral warmth that makes couples feel seen and not shamed. Every married couple, and every pastor who cares about marriages in their congregation, needs this resource." --Jeremy Williamson, Pastor & Storywork Coach

"Clear, tender, and deeply respectful, Reframing Intimacy helps couples untangle shame and unhelpful scripts around sex and replace them with curiosity, safety, and delight . . . a rare and essential book for Christian couples." -- Lindsey Vestal, OTR/L, Founder of The Functional Pelvis
