As a young couple, my husband and I read this amazing book by Michael Pearl together...it was a very enlightening read! It is a wonderful Biblical resource for a newly married couple (or any couple!) to help instruct and teach about intimacy the Bible way!! If you look at the book of Song of Solomon with pure, holy eyes, not with a carnal, worldly mindset, it is evident that God allowed Solomon’s book of love to be included in the Holy Writ to not only be an allegorical tale of His love and pursuit of man, but also as a primer for marital intimacy....the Bible way! Michael Pearl breaks down the terminology of Song of Solomon and explains what the Lord meant for intimacy to look like in a marriage. It is full of beautiful imagery of not only the love for Christ and His church but also, for a man and his bride! I highly recommended this book ! It is a an excellent source of knowledge designed to encourage intimacy between you and your spouse! I remember even tears 😭 flowing as I read the book aloud to my husband. It’s amazing to understand how powerful God intended for the connection between a man and his wife to be!

From the author— the Back Cover:
God created his children as sexual opposites, and designed marriage to be the context of erotic pleasure. While the church has been mostly silent on the subject of sex, the world and the devil have attempted to make it their domain. The church has rightly proclaimed the biblical prohibitions on the misuse of sex, but it has failed to speak out on the godliness of erotic pleasure in the context of marriage. Out of the 66 books composing the Bible, one whole book is dedicated to promoting erotic pleasurethe Song of Solomon. Michael Pearl takes his readers through a refreshing journey of the Biblical texts. This sanctifying look at the most powerful passion God ever created will free the reader from false guilt and inhibition. Michael Pearl says, "It is time for Christian couples to take back this sacred ground and enjoy the holy gift of sexual pleasure." This material is intended for mature audiences. Dont read this book unless you are married, have definite plans to be married in the next few weeks, or are an older teenager whose parents have first read it and approve of you doing so. If you dont think God meant for sex to be fun, this book is definitely for you
