Download or read book The 6 Hearts of Intimacy written by Bob Moeller and published by Whitaker House. This book was released on 2018-09-11 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding the way your spouse gives and receives love will bring depth and new fulfillment to your love life. The 6 Hearts of Intimacy is a “Love Languages” for sex in marriage. Rather than focusing on sexual techniques, it unlocks the secret to true sexual fulfillment by revealing the unique way each spouse gives and receives love. Various books describe the distinct ways in which people express and accept love, but this idea has never before been specifically applied to intimacy in marriage. Marriage experts Bob and Cheryl Moeller present biblically based and proven ways to enhance your relationship with your spouse as they describe the Romantic Heart, the Giving Heart, the Guardian Heart, the Companion Heart, the Worshipping Heart, and the Ecstatic Heart. They also expose the “counterfeit hearts” that are present in many people’s marriages, leaving their sexual relationship self-focused and empty. Many couples spend a lifetime attempting to express their love yet fail to achieve true intimacy. Sensitively written with practical advice and humor, The 6 Hearts of Intimacy shows husbands and wives how to successfully resolve conflicts in their sexual relationship and how to care daily for their spouse’s unique heart of sexual love. Discussion questions are included at the end of each chapter.

Then–with sensitivity, honesty, and hope–Barbara walks you step by step toward healing…and a rekindling of the closeness and passion with your husband that you really want. You don’t have to live any longer with confusion, disappointment, resentment, or shame. You can rediscover desire. You can say Wow! again.
