In this episode, Matt & Jenn share some of their favorite marriage and sex book recommendations.

1. Find good resources that encourage your marriage and share these with you spouse.
2. If you have trouble in your marriage, seek help from those capable of helping — spiritual mentors, church elders, and professional therapists.
3. If you are a leader, especially in your local congregation, strengthen your marriage. And, equip yourself to help other marriages by developing a biblical view of marriage and sex — good books or other resources can help.
4. Good Books for Leaders (but really for everyone)

   • 7 Principles for Making Marriage Work by John Gottman
5. General Marriage & Sexuality Books
   • Sacred Marriage by Gary Thomas
   • Cherish by Gary Thomas
   • God Loves Sex by Dan Allender & Tremper Longman III
   • Intimate Allies by Dan Allender & Tremper Longman III
6. Wives
