50 Best Christian Sex Resources for Marriage
Do you want to have better sex? Sure! We all have questions about how to have better sex in a Christian marriage.
Since sex is one of the top five issues that couples argue about, it makes sense that we all occasionally need some quality Christian sex resources–everything from sexual technique to ways to grow in intimacy overall so that we all can discover better married sex.
But where do we go to find real answers about sex for the Christian marriage? Especially if we're in a Christian marriage and we want clean Christian sex resources that don't involve erotica or pornography?
Most of us aren't comfortable talking about Christian love making tips. We can't really bring it up our questions about married Christian sex while on a playdate at the park. Ahem.
We need a central place (a Christian sex guide) where we can go to (discreetly!) discover healthy answers about how to have better sex in Christian marriage.
And that, my friends, is why I wrote this post. I've gathered these incredible Christian sex resources that give insight into the top questions many Christian couples have about sex and intimacy in marriage.
These Christian sex resources are everything from great books about sex (all clean sex resources for couples) to helpful blog posts and marriage videos (all clean sex resources for couples).
Some of these Christian love making tips are about specifically about sexual technique or physical intimacy; while others offer practical ideas and solutions for improving intimacy in marriage (which often starts outside the bedroom and by working on key relationship issues).
There are also Christian sex resources on flirting and keeping love fun; and those that address what to do if pornography or erotica enters your marriage.
These resources on how to have better sex in Christian marriage are grouped together by topic so that you can find the answers you need fast:
- Powerful Christian Sex Advice Regarding Porn In Your Marriage (including two free christian sex resources for couples dealing with porn in their marriage)
- How to Improve Your Marriage's Spiritual Connection (The Secret to Better Sex!)
- How to Improve Emotional Intimacy for Better Sex

Why Porn Isn't a Great Christian Sex Resource
Friends, my heart breaks every time I hear of a couple who is suffering because one or both members have become involved in pornography. The silent-but-lethal sin of pornography is destroying marriages, families and even churches all over the world!
That's why I wanted to start this post by talking about one of the greatest evils out there when it comes not only to better sex in marriage but to having a strong marriage overall.
At the surface it seems that porn itself would be a great sex resource for couples. If we need ideas on sexual technique, why not look at what others are doing, right?
But truly, pornography (whether viewed as a couple or by one individual in the relationship) is as destructive as wildfire.
I want to give you two amazing (and free) Christian sex resources that you must check out if pornography has entered your marriage. These are two powerful resources from a Christian online accountability monitoring service called Covenant Eyes, and again, they are completely free.

Christian Sex Resources for Online Accountability and Internet Filtering
The free Christian sex resources on dealing with pornography in marriage give couples great advice on the next steps to take when a couple first discovers that porn is an issue. But moving forward, trusted online accountability must be an integral part of a couple's action plan if they seek true healing in their marriage.
Our family has used Covenant Eyes for over 7 years now because they are, without a doubt, the best internet filtering and accountability software on the market.
Not only does Covenant Eyes' software protect loved ones from looking at questionable sites online, it's the accountability power behind Covenant Eyes that makes it an incredibly potent weapon when it comes to battling online pornography.
Pornography can be lethal to a marriage, and no couple is immune from pornography's destructive power. That's why I recommend every couple get Covenant Eyes and become each other's accountability partnering order to safeguard against pornography.
Covenant Eyes even has a 30-day money back guarantee. There really is no risk involved and I know how much having Covenant Eyes has blessed our marriage and given us peace of mind regarding this issue!
That's why I recommend every couple get Covenant Eyes.

Do you need more practical advice about how to find healing after pornography or on how to prevent pornography in your marriage? I highly recommend these Christian sex resources as excellent reading materials.

Couples Devotionals and Books That Encourage Better Married Christian Sex
Our favorite marriage devotional is one by our dear friends (and marriage coaches) Mike + Carlie Kercheval called “Consecrated Conversations.”
This awesome couples devotional goes deep on important topics that matter to Christian couples (everything from forgiveness to communication issues to sex).
With three sections in each devotion (including a Bible verse, “Converse & Reflect” questions, and a sample prayer), this marriage resource encourages couples to discover intimacy in marriage like never before.
Plus there are extremely helpful videos and even 30 bonus printable scripture cards!
Consecrated Conversations is a digital resource, which means my husband and I don't need to carry a book around because we have this powerful couples devotional available right on our phones or tablets. Yes!
I love how practical this couples devotional is, and how Mike and Carlie really encourage couples to invite God into their marriage discussions. Only God is the one that can bring true satisfaction, contentment and unity in marriage, right?
I also appreciate that Consecrated Conversations understands the big needs of Christian couples: that we want to communicate and connect with our spouses and we're disappointed and hurt that we can't seem to make it happen. Consecrated Conversations is a specific, proven roadmap for a closer marriage for Christian couples.
I highly recommend this marriage devotional to many couples as the best couples devotional out there! Order your copy here.
P.S. Did I mention that this couples devotional experience (that includes an e-book, a video workshop, and scripture cards) is an INSANE value?! It's only $47 for $161 worth of content.
Seriously, the Consecrated Conversations Devotional is an amazing bible study experience to do with your spouse! What are you waiting for?

#1 Way to Grow Closer to Your Spouse
The strongest marriages are those couples who understand that their love for either other is sustained by a deep understanding of God's love for them.
You can't love your spouse unconditionally unless you've experienced the life-changing power of God's unconditional love.
That's why if you want to make God's love real in your heart (and in your relationship), the“I Am Loved” 4-Week Bible Study Course is the perfect next step.
This amazing, one of a kind study is perfect for anyone who needs to better understand God's love so they can better love their spouse.
Each week on Days 1 to 5 of the study, you'll use the Spiritual Growth Rhythm™ (an simple 3-step method that allows you to deeply connect with God in about 10 minutes a day) to apply that day's Bible verse about love to your life.
Here's a video that explains the Spiritual Growth Rhythm:

Here's what the daily Spiritual Growth Rhythm™ Worksheets look like:
Then at the end of the week you'll watch the teaching video and be challenged by several thought-provoking questions that will allow you to work through any questions you have about God's love, such as:
- Where is God’s love during hard times?
- How can God’s love bring me everyday joy and peace?
- How can I best experience God’s love?
- How do I know that God always loves me?
The weekly teaching videos, devotionals and weekly check in sheets allow you to process what that you've been learning all week on a specific topic so that God can really confirm these truths in your heart.
There's even bonus material, including adult coloring pages, curated podcast lists and coaching questions so you can dig even deeper into the topic of God's love.
Day by day the“I Am Loved” Bible Study Course will transform your thoughts by making God's love real and relevant to YOUR circumstances.

How More Date Nights Can Result in Better Sex in Marriage
It makes sense that date nights are a great way to have better sex in Christian marriage because we're able to re-discover those little things about our spouse that made us fall in love with them.
The problem with date nights is that we get so busy! How can we actually make time for date nights (especially when we have young children and/or busy careers)? And once we do get a date with our spouse on the calendar, how can we insure that the date night will result in a deeper emotional connection (and alright, yes, better sex)?
These posts and other marriage resources below are a fantastic way to not only make date nights a reality in your marriage but to help you develop the fine art of conversation and connection while you're alone together.

Thank you, Dan. I will check it out! 🙂
Can I recommend one more for your list? It’s an app called Ultimate Intimacy for Couples. It’s Christian-friendly and full of ideas, encouragement, and inspiration to growing an intimate marriage. My wife particularly likes the bedroom game and conversation starters.
Am glad to know that we have Christian resources regarding the topics you have picked. Pls send me some of the free articles when ever you have them
Joanne! Thank you for your lovely, encouraging note. I too agree that we continually need to be caring for our marriages. We’ve got to continually work to keep the spark going and the relationship fresh as our life changes from season to season! Thank you for choosing to invest in your marriage!
Even though we’re celebrating our 34th Anniversary on May 7th, the spark tends to diminish and new ideas or re-connecting is always a great idea. I love that people out there create resources for people, and I just want to say “Thank You” for taking the time to do this ❤️✝️❤️
LOL! It’s hard to tell if people are joking or not sometimes… thanks for pointing that out!
I think Kelli was saying that in jest. After all, children are a blessing from being able to come together with one’s spouse and one should continue to enjoy your spouse long after childbearing!
I also recommend KY jellies, hot and cold! 🙂 Cold is better though.
Hi Kelly! Thanks for sharing, however I would have to disagree with your statement. Sex is a wonderful way for couples to connect regularly and to unite not just physically but emotionally. There’s much more to sex than just procreation.
Now that we have our children there’s no more need for sex.
Thank you so much for your encouragement!
This is a great list of resources, Alicia! We need this topic spoken of more often and without shame. Thanks for presenting it is such a healthy way. Thanks for linking up with Grace and Truth.
Sure! Thank you for stopping by. I’m glad they are helpful!
Looks like you put together a very comprehensive list on a topic that is hard to talk about. #overthemoon
Thanks for the resources.
Think everything in life can be improved and more blessed !!
