That's what we're going to talk about on today's bare marriage podcast. I'm Sheila Ray Gregor from

bearmarriage.com, where we like to talk about healthy evidence-based

biblical advice for your sex life and your marriage.

And, you know, so many of you come to me because of issues with sex.

0:29.6

You know, you've read the great sex rescue.

0:31.2

0:35.5

0:54.2

to bring you another interview of the totally new book that's coming out next month. And I read this. And I was like, oh, this is the book that we needed. It is so comprehensive. It's so easy to understand. And I'm so excited about it.

Or I want to send the podcast, the bare marriage podcast to my sister, but I don't know what to tell her to listen to or I want my husband to understand what I'm learning, but I'm not sure what to get him to listen to.

1:28.8

And so I've actually created several playlists,

1:31.5

playlist for husbands who are trying to understand,

1:34.3

playlist about great sex, about complementarianism,

1:37.8

about some of the toxic books we've read,

1:39.9

even about understanding why evangelical advice so often is toxic.

1:43.7

So those are our five

1:44.6

playlists. And I have a post including all of the playlist, but I also have the playlist
