God Wrote a Sex Poem—And You’re Still Blushing?
Unlock the desire, passion, and fire you’ve been told is unholy. What the Puritans knew, what the church forgot, and what your marriage desperately needs.

The Song of Solomon, Chapter 1: Desire, Intimacy, and the Sacred Power of Attraction
“Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth: for thy love is better than wine.”
—Song of Solomon 1:2 (KJV)
Let’s start with a blunt truth:
The church has a long, weird history with sex.
Not the world—the church. For centuries, we’ve swung between silence and shame, with very little Scripture in the mix.
The Puritans are a prime example. Reverent, devout, biblically sharp—but when it came to sex? Most modern Christians think they were prudish or cold.
But that’s not the full story.
