We explore God's design for intimacy within marriage and share eight essential principles for newlyweds navigating sexual expectations versus reality after the wedding day.
• Understanding God's purpose for sex: procreation, enjoyment, and intimacy between husband and wife
• Recognizing that great intimacy takes time, communication, and patience to develop
• Being patient with the journey rather than expecting instant perfection
• Communicating clearly and often about desires, preferences, and boundaries
• Inviting God into every aspect of your marriage, including the bedroom
• Focusing on connection beyond just physical pleasure
• Addressing and releasing unhelpful expectations from past experiences
• Overcoming insecurity and comparison for greater vulnerability
• Protecting intimacy with intentional boundaries against distractions
• Continuously learning and growing together through resources and conversation
• Approaching intimacy with tenderness, focusing on your spouse's experience
• Scheduling regular times for connection rather than leaving it to chance
