Why the Best Lovers Are the Best Communicators

Day 3 - Nov 4, 2026

3. Make It Safe to Be Real

Many people grew up hearing that sex was wrong, shameful, or taboo. So now, even in marriage, it’s hard to talk about it without feeling awkward or judged. But God designed sex for joy, unity, and connection within marriage—it’s a gift, not a curse.

  • Couples who discuss their beliefs and backgrounds around sex report a 60% increase in emotional closeness.
  • When you talk about where you’ve been, you better understand where you are now.
  • and, Where you want to go together.

Song of Solomon 1:2 says, "Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth! For your love is better than wine." This is a picture of delight, not shame. Let your marriage reflect that same safety and joy.

Unresolved wounds from the past can affect your present connection.

  • Identifying the source of shame or fear and working through it together can bring freedom and intimacy you never thought possible.


Take Action

Pray about sharing your story. It doesn’t have to be perfect—just honest.

  • Couples’ Conversation:
    “What were we taught (or not taught) about sex growing up, and how has that shaped how we see it today?”

  • Individual Reflection:
    “What beliefs or experiences might be holding me back from fully enjoying intimacy with my spouse?”  Be honest with yourself and don't allow the enemy to steal your future by throwing out facts from your past.  Put those facts (or pains) in proper perspecrtive with God's Truth.
