Leading to the Bedroom: The Christian Couple’s Guide to Soul Sex

Courtesy of David Reid

People of my generation will remember George Michael’s exhortation that “Sex is natural, sex is good; not everybody does it, but everybody should.” Michael had it partly right. Sex is natural and good, but it isn’t meant for everybody. Specifically, it is meant for married couples. When practiced within marriage, sex strengthens the relationship between husband and wife. However, other forms of sex can be psychologically and emotionally damaging, not to mention destructive to families. This is part of the message of Leading to the Bedroom by West Georgia pastor and Georgia Tech graduate, David Reid.

This book is important because the divorce rate in Georgia is one of the highest in the country. At the same time, the national marriage rate has been declining for decades. As more and more children are raised in fractured or single-parent families, society suffers. Being a single parent is one of the most certain ways to end up in poverty in this country. Even if the family is financially stable, divorce causes a multitude of psychological and physical problems for children. The physical, emotional and financial toll of broken marriages is a major strain on American society.
