What the Toxic Teachings We Measured Have in Common

by Sheila Wray Gregoire | Apr 3, 2023 | Theology of Marriage and Sex

There’s a thread that runs through the toxic teachings we’ve measured: Intimacy is a pipe dream. Now that we’ve done surveys with over 29,000 women, we can take a step back and look at the toxic teachings we’ve measured as a whole–the...

Does 1 Corinthians 7 Say that She Has No Sexual Autonomy?

by Sheila Wray Gregoire | Nov 23, 2022 | Theology of Marriage and Sex

You will never have a healthy sex life if you don’t have autonomy over your own body. You just can’t. Unless you are free to say yes or to say no, desire can’t build, because desire and obligation are at odds with each other. Just as you can’t...

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!
