Book Title: The 6 Hearts of Intimacy

Author: Bob & Cheryl Moeller

Genre: Christian Non-fiction

Release date: September 11, 2018

Understand the way your spouse gives and receives love for greater passion in your marriage.

The 6 Hearts of Intimacy is a “Love Languages” for sex in marriage. Rather than focusing on 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 six 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 Worshiping 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 relationship and how to care daily for their spouse’s unique heart of sexual love.

Guest Post from Bob and Cheyl

You have God’s permission to enjoy sex within your marriage. He invented sex; He thought it up to begin with. You can learn to enjoy it and, husbands, you can develop a thrilling, happy marriage with ‘the wife of your youth.’ If your marriage has been a civil-war battlefield or a dreary wasteland, instead of a lovers’ trysting place, all that can change. You see, God has a perfect plan for marriage, which we may choose to step into at any time, and the mistakes of the past can be dealt with and left behind.

Indeed, the Ecstatic Heart finds its fulfillment in the intoxicating experience of joyful physical intimacy with your spouse that God Himself ordained, created, and blessed. The Ecstatic Heart celebrates married physical intimacy as a gift from God.

I had to laugh as I read this passage in the book; "Love makes you do crazy things." It makes people act weird at times, say silly things and sometimes do something out of desperation to get love. I did like the part they talked about eye contact. You can tell so much about a person looking at their eyes. It's funny that our eyes can tell on us and share our feelings without us wanting to. When you find that one person who completely has your heart, your eyes only want to look at them. It is as if everyone else has disappeared. That right there for me is intimacy. It is sharing your heart without saying a word. 

I remember saying to my husband the other day something that completely made tears come to his eyes. I said, "Thank you for going to work everyday for your family. I appreciate all you do to provide for us."  I didn't realize how much he needed to hear those words. We take our spouses for granted and forget they need to hear how much we appreciate them. 

The book goes into details about what the 6 Hearts of Intimacy are.  Each one is explained with examples and scriptures that help couples understand the importance of having them in a marriage. One of the most important statements the authors make is , "Don't give satan a foothold." When a spouse is hurt by the other, there is a little slit in the marriage where the enemy can come in and start his destruction. It is so important to communicate with each other, share your struggles and pray together. How many of us have withheld sex to punish our spouse? It seems like a great tool to use, but in reality , " Sex was never meant to be a bargaining tool."

The book has good insight into making your marriage stronger through intimacy. I like to think about the day I married my husband. We were so in love and over the years we have grown closer but at times seem distant. I like the idea of taking time to spend a weekend away with your spouse.  I can't remember the last time we went out by ourselves. To me intimacy is not just about sex, but having a bond so strong nothing can tear it apart. You can find intimacy by praying together, sharing your thoughts or just holding hands. The real key is to have Jesus as the center in your marriage. "A three cord strand is not easily broken."

I received a copy of this book from Celebrate Lit. The review is my own opinion.
