The predominant message in our culture is that it's okay to have sex whenever, wherever, and however we want. Sex has become just sex. But while society has taken sex too far, the church hasn't taken it far enough.
God wants couples to make love in marriage-with passion, with purpose, and with pleasure. Marriages aren't experiencing all the benefits that come from a healthy sex life. Couples are facing a barrage of influences that keep them from connecting with each other regularly-the kids, the career, the house, the errands, etc.
SEXPERIMENT shows people that sex in marriage is more than just sex, and it's more than a chore. The Youngs believe it's time to get back to understanding the context of sex in marriage and that it's time for couples to break the barriers keeping them from a healthy sexual relationship. Couples ought to experience the benefits of having sex regularly, intentionally, and creatively. SEXPERIMENT will allow couples to discover that the intersection of God and sex can lead to a life punctuated by exclamation marks!

"Well written book with the premise that 7 striaght days of sex with your spouse will draw you closer in a Oneness relationship - what God intended. Plainly written with biblical references and stories from the author who is a pastor."

“It’s not a lack of love that makes a marriage monotonous; it’s a lack of passion. Sexperiment will help you put the passion back where it belong…and take your marriage where it needs to be!”
— Rev. Run of Run-DMC“Ed and Lisa have modeled a Christ-center marriage for over twenty-five years. Their straightforward, encouraging, and practical teaching in Sexperiment will take your marriage to greater depth of intimacy than you’ve ever known before.”
— Craig and Amy Groeschel, senior pastors, LifeChurch.tv“Honestly, most of the preaching and teaching about sex, love, and marriage is not getting the job done. The marriages and sex lives represented in the church look no better than the world’s. And the reason is because our approach to the subject is based on restraint rather than vision. In Sexperiment Ed Young, a man with a marriage and family worth aspiring to, changes that. If you want to experience all of the pleasure and happiness God intended for your marriage, this book is a must-read.”
— Steven and Holly Furtick, lead pastors, Elevation Church“Ed and Lisa are simply fun to be around and their joy as a family speaks even louder than their world-renowned church does. My wife and I look at their marriage, the way they still laugh with each other and live life so passionately, and are instantly inspired. Additionally, all their children actually want to hang out with them! Higher praise for parents you could not find. Obviously, their marriage is impacting, if it works in their own house first. This book should be a premarriage prerequisite and an annual ‘wanna stay happily married’ reread! Thank God for a couple that continues to help others build strong marriages.”

— Steven & Holly Furtick, Lead Pastor at Elevation Church; Author, Sun Stand StillMarriage without good sex is like a house without heat in the winter. You might be able to survive in it but it's not nearly as enjoyable. Ed and Lisa are among the best when it comes to encouraging us to keep the ""heat on"" in the house. Their practical, honest, and open style of communication on this topic is both real and refreshing. I want to encourage you to take this challenge as an opportunity to stir the fire in your marriage.
— Pastors Kevin & Sheila Gerald of Champions CentreOur culture worships sex but is often confused about marriage. I've always believed that the church should be at the forefront in portraying the delight of sex in the context of marriage. Ed Young's book does just that with humor, wisdom, and candor.

— Rev. Run" Great marriage book. "
— Becki, 10/8/2013" There isn't anything in this book that you haven't heard before. Marriage is about giving. It's about the other person, not self. It's a covenant. Emotional intimacy can't be had without physical intimacy. Prioritize the sex and reap the rewards. "
