Back to the garden: your guide to Pleasure by design
What if your body wasn't broken?
What if you just hadn't been told the whole story?
In this digital guide, we go Back to the Garden to see a fresh vision of what a fully alive, God-honoring intimacy (and pleasure) could actually look like for your marriage.
DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?
"I do this for him. It's not really for me."
You want to want it — but the desire just isn't there.
Your husband asks what feels good and you go completely blank.
Sex feels more like an obligation than an invitation.
Nobody ever taught you that your body was designed for this too.
The problem isn't you.
It's what you were never taught.
Most women in the church were handed silence where there should have been guidance in what is true and right. We were taught what not to do — but rarely given a vision of what a fully alive, God-honoring intimacy could look like for a woman.
And you cannot reach toward something you've never been shown.
This guide exists to show you. Not to fix you — because you are not broken. But to hand you the vision that was always yours to have: a marriage where intimacy is mutual, pleasurable, and marked by the kind of deep knowing God designed it to be. A body you can inhabit with curiosity instead of shame. A bed you come to as a full participant, not a reluctant performer.
That is what's waiting on the other side of this. This guide is the beginning of getting there.
WHAT’S INSIDE…

BACK TO THE GARDEN: PLEASURE BY DESIGN
In this GUIDE YOU’LL GET INSIGHT AND PRACTICALS ON THESE TOPICS:
Why Pleasure Matters
Pleasure wasn't an afterthought. It was God's idea from the very beginning — rooted in Eden itself.
Understanding Your Body
Your body was made with intention. Learn how it's designed to respond — and why that matters.
Creating Space for Pleasure
Safety, slowness, and connection are where intimacy begins to open. Practical tools you can use tonight.
A Lifelong Journey
There is no finish line. Only the beautiful, ongoing invitation to keep growing — together.
"Pleasure is not something you give to your husband.
It is a gift God designed to be shared together.”
You've always felt like sex was more for him than for you.
You struggle to identify what you want — or even what feels good.
You wish someone had given you a fuller picture of how pleasure works.
You want more intimacy in your marriage but don't know where to start.
You're ready to stop performing and start actually experiencing.
You believe God is inviting you into something more — and you want to say yes.
THIS GUIDE IS FOR YOU IF…
I’m FRANCIE, WIFE, MOM, and INTIMACY EVANGELIST
Journey with me towards more
It isn’t just about knowing more; it's about getting equipped with the confidence to grow more…
I wrote this because nobody handed it to me when I needed it. For years I was what I call a duty wife — present, but not really there. Years of health challenges in our family sent me on a deep search for answers, and what I kept finding was a body that had forgotten what it felt like to rest, to receive, to be fully alive.
That journey changed everything. And I wrote this guide so you don't have to wait as long as I did to discover that your body, your desire, and your pleasure were always part of God's design for you.
I believe God designed our bodies (and how they fit together) with great intention and purpose. As we understand our body and the gift of pleasure we see more God and His design for more in married sex.
