Have you ever noticed that a lot of common Christian sex advice just sounds really icky?

Sex is supposed to be great. Like, really great. So great that it’s hard to keep your hands off each other great. 

So why do so many Christian marriage books present it as another chore to check off of a woman’s to-do list? 

Why do so many Christian sex books portray men as doomed to sexual deviancy? 

We’re on a mission to change the conversation about sex in evangelical spaces. And to do that, we started by scoring our current best-sellers based on a Healthy Sexuality Scorecard. 

Want to see how your favourite book scored? 

You can download the rubric and scorecard (including quotes that explain the score) here, for free!
