Have you ever wondered what kind of stories a sex therapist hears? In Caught Between the Sheets: Musings of a Sex Therapist we will explore the lives, stories and questions of everyday people who have sought to have more in their intimate sexual lives. We will look at what has kept them from their pleasure potential and what ultimately releases them. And from these stories we will liberate and practice ways that invite us into erotic ecstasy that satisfies our bodies, our hearts and our relationship … and can linger for days. We will explore the great mystery that is sexuality and how it defies our attempts to simplify it, sell it, chain it, reduce it or ignore it.
The very nature of spirituality is infused with sexuality, and sexuality with spirituality. We are bodied souls. Sex, God & the Church walks readers through a critique of western culture and the Christian church and its effect on intimate partnerships and sexual lives. It provides readers a way to understand the faulty sexual ethic of the early church while revealing the hidden mystical understanding of sexuality of the Hebrew people. It seeks to heal shame and guide people to develop a fully integrated sexuality and spirituality that honors faith values along with desires for intimacy and pleasure. It is the ultimate story of redemption – with your sexuality and with God.
“Doing this work has meant so many important things to my life. Dave and I have created ways to be together that are vibrant and expansive. Our sexual lives seems to flow out from the space we have now created and is no longer jammed into what time is left. And I have discovered I am a sensual sexual person whose faith is ever-present, especially when I am being sexual!” ~Joanie
“I am beginning to see that sexuality and spirituality are not two distinct and unrelated aspects of life and relationship. I now seek to define my sexuality as Tina put it so beautifully . . . a sexuality that is life giving, love receiving, community serving’ . . . and NOT an ignoring of relationships or an objectifying of bodies type of SEXUALITY!!” ~Sharon
“Last week when our 4-year-old announced to the family after her bath that touching her ‘gina’ felt really good— instead of freaking out, my wife and I could just smile and say, ‘yep, sweetie . . . isn’t it wonderful the way God made our bodies!’ I can only imagine how we would have responded without your guidance!” ~Caleb
