In A Celebration of Sex, Dr. Rosenau unabashedly takes a thorough look at sex and more specifically at sex as a gift from God. With over 30 years of experience as a Christian Sex Therapist, he guides the reader through topics including erogenous zones, the lovemaking cycle, aphrodisiacs, sensuous massage, mutual pleasuring, sex after forty, orgasmic difficulty, sex with a disability, infertility, premature ejaculation, painful intercourse, extramarital affairs, past sexual abuse, pornography, and sexual addiction. Though these topics are often uncomfortable and difficult to discuss, he does so in a practical, thoughtful, and sometimes playful way.

Dr. Rosenau unfailingly examines these topics through the Christian perspective of marital sexuality as God’s gift. He states that “a loving companionship and a right relationship with God are the essentials” for a fulfilling sex life. This book provides a foundation for developing a sexually fulfilling marital relationship. It is intended for couples who are preparing for marriage, for those who are married and struggling with specific sexual concerns, and also for those who are married and want to continue to build on their healthy and fulfilling sex life.
