Do you need healing from sexual pain?

If so, I want to pass along a new resource to you. Dannah Gresh has written an incredible book called “What Are You Waiting For: The One Thing No One Ever Tells You About Sex”. On her blog, she shares one of the most important and healing chapters from this book: Starting Over.

Here is some of what Dannah shares:

Roughly half of all women enter their marriage bed having given away the gift of their virginity. And at a growing rate, many of them have had multiple partners—sometimes as many as 12-24. As I explain in detail within the pages of What Are You Waiting For: The One Thing No One Ever Tells You About Sex, the deep limbic system of the brain can’t physiologically handle that without a woman feeling depression. (In her teens this results in non-virgins being 12x more likely to attempt suicide than their virgin peers.)


This can show up as an inability to be close to a fiancé or husband, a sexual repression, a sexual addiction, or the never-ending-daily-obsession to ask one-more-time for God to forgive a sexual sin long ago past. (If you have to keep asking, you should know you’re forgiven but you’re not healed.)The good news is that God has not left us without hope for healing. After twelve years of walking with hundreds of women through the sexual healing process, I have finally found what I believe to be the most effective method of healing. I want you to know about it for your own life, and for the women you mentor. So here it is.For the chapter on Starting Over, click here on Dannah’s blog:

I pray The Lord's Healing over every beautiful soul who desperately seeks it.  He is faithful.  He is Healer.  And I'm thanking Him in advance for what He is doing and will do as He continues to restore broken hearts, lives, marriages, and homes.



With love, from your Slow Cooking friend,
