10 Kissing Games to Play with Your Christian Man

Kissing is such an intimate and sacred act—if we really think about it, it’s an exchange of vulnerability, trust, and connection as two souls come close in a way words cannot achieve. For those of us engaging in relationships centered on faith, it’s not just a moment of physical connection; it can even feel spiritual. After all, love is a reflection of God’s presence in our lives, and the Song of Solomon doesn’t shy away from expressing the beauty of physical affection: “Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth—for your love is more delightful than wine” (Song of Solomon 1:2).

But here’s the thing: when you’re navigating romance within a Christian relationship, you want to combine fun, respect, and intimacy in ways that honor your faith—and your man. Enter: kissing games. Romantic, playful, and deeply personal, they remind us how joyful love can be, while still honoring the boundaries we’ve established together.

I’ve put together 10 playful and meaningful kissing games—perfect for you and your Christian man. In these moments, you’re not just building intimacy but nurturing one another emotionally and spiritually. After all, Philippians 4:8 encourages us to think on whatever is true, noble, right, and lovely. Romance can absolutely be all of those things. Let’s dive in.

A couple sitting on a cozy sofa, holding hands with a serene expression, eyes closed in prayer. The woman leans forward to gently kiss the man, who is smiling with appreciation, surrounded by soft, warm lighting.

1. The Blessing Kiss

This one is simple but profound, and it turns a kiss into a shared moment of gratitude. Start by sitting down together and taking a few moments to pray. Think of a blessing or gratitude you want to express for him. Share it out loud, then seal it with a kiss.

What makes the Blessing Kiss so beautiful is how it intertwines intimacy with faith. It reminds me of St. Augustine’s words: “To fall in love with God is the greatest romance.” By giving thanks for each other and your relationship, you are pulling love closer to its divine source while also creating a romantic spark.

If you want to spin it into a playful game, take turns thinking of creative or specific blessings for one another throughout the day, each time sealing it with a kiss. Make it spontaneous—he might be in the middle of washing dishes, and you just grab his face, tell him what an amazing provider he is, and steal a quick kiss.

2. The Verse Exchange Challenge

This one is perfect for the couple who loves to add a touch of Scripture to their romance. Here’s how it works: each of you takes turns reciting Bible verses about love, commitment, or kindness. The “winner” of each round gets to steal a kiss—simple as that!

It could be something quick and sweet like “Love is patient, love is kind” (1 Corinthians 13:4-8) or even a little cheeky like “May he kiss me with the kisses of his mouth, for your love is better than wine” (Song of Solomon 1:2).

But don’t just stop at quoting familiar verses! Spend a little time beforehand exploring passages together that inspire you or make you laugh, and turn this into a moment for both connection and learning. This game is meaningful because your foundation as a couple is built on something sturdy—faith. It’s easy to forget, as C.S. Lewis said in The Four Loves, that “our affections are meant to be pointers to something greater.” That “greater” thing, of course, is God. Verses shared together remind both of you that love isn’t just emotional; it’s part of God’s design.

For an added twist, make it where the one who runs out of verses first has to write the other a sweet note or prayer before the night ends—a beautiful way to keep the love alive long after the kisses!

A couple walking hand-in-hand down a sunlit forest path. They suddenly pause mid-stride, under a canopy of colorful autumn leaves, to share a spontaneous kiss, with joyful expressions and the light dappled on their faces.

3. The Walk and Pause Kiss Game

There’s something timeless about walks as a couple—being outdoors, moving together, and leaving behind the busyness of the world. This game makes a walk even more special. Stroll hand-in-hand in your favorite park or along a quiet trail. The “game” is that whenever either of you decides to pause, wherever you are, the other person has to lean in for a kiss. It could be under a big tree, on a bench, or simply mid-stride as you pause under God’s open sky.

It’s playful, yes, but it also gives you the chance to slow down and see nature as part of something bigger. Creation is a reminder of God’s own love, and moments like this can help you feel connected not just to each other but also to the world around you. As Romantic poet John Keats wrote, “A thing of beauty is a joy forever.” Why not make that beauty your shared love, right there on that walk?

You could take it a step further by combining the pauses with a gratitude game. Each time one of you wants to kiss, you also have to say something you’re grateful for about the other. That combination of intention and affection? Absolutely priceless.

A couple sitting across from each other at a small table, each holding a card with one of the fruits of the Spirit written on it. They exchange loving glances and share a tender kiss, surrounded by soft candlelight and gentle smiles.

4. The Fruit of the Spirit Kiss Challenge

You know the fruits of the Spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23). Here’s how this game works: Spend some time exploring how each of you sees these traits in the other. Choose one at a time, share an example where you’ve noticed your partner displaying that “fruit,” and for every example you share, follow it up with a kiss.

For example: Is he patient when you’ve had a long day? Tell him! Is he faithful in how he keeps you grounded in prayer? Let him know. Each fruit of the Spirit becomes a moment of both reflection and romance. It’ll keep conversation flowing and feelings deepening.

There’s something sacred about bringing faith into the playful world of love. As Tertullian once said, “It is not just our words of love that honor God, but the way we love each other.” It’s a kiss game, sure, but it’s also an opportunity to affirm each other’s strengths and virtues in the name of the One who made you both.

You could even make it a long-term project: focus on one fruit of the Spirit during each date night, making this kissing game last for weeks if not months.

5. The “Guess the Flavor” Kissing Game

This one has a playful, almost childlike innocence to it that makes it so fun! Choose several flavored lip balms or glosses—think fruity, sweet, or even unusual flavors. Apply one without him seeing, kiss him, and see if he can guess the flavor. Then swap so he can do the same.

It’s lighthearted and fun but also gets the two of you laughing and enjoying something simple—a reminder that intimacy doesn’t always have to be serious or heavy to feel meaningful. It’s a perfect game for those lazy evenings when you’re just hanging out.

This sweet simplicity reflects the idea that love is about delighting in one another. As Dietrich Bonhoeffer wrote, “It is not your love that sustains the marriage, but … the love that you both strive to maintain together under God.” Even small, playful moments like this are drops in the river of maintaining that love.

For an extra dimension of meaning, you can tie the “flavors” to memories or shared experiences. For example, use a tropical flavor and reminisce about that beach trip you took together. Or a peppermint one that reminds you of Christmas traditions. Each flavor becomes a doorway to gratitude, connection, and shared joy.

A couple laughing together on a sofa, surrounded by scattered Bible trivia cards. The man leans in for a cheeky kiss on her forehead after answering a question correctly, while she playfully rolls her eyes.

6. The Bible Trivia Kissing Game

Okay, this one is both hilarious and a brain workout for the two of you. What you’ll do is create a list of Bible-related trivia questions for each other—anything from “What was the first miracle Jesus performed?” to “Who was the youngest king in the Bible?” For every correct answer, you get a kiss. And for every wrong answer? The other person decides where the next kiss goes… cheek, forehead, or maybe right back to the lips!

This game is not only flirtatious, but it also keeps both of you rooted in faith and Scripture. As Proverbs 27:17 says, “As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.” In this case, you’re sharpening both your biblical knowledge AND your bond through flirtation.

Here’s a twist: To make it extra fun, if one of you gets a really tricky question correct, they can “earn” a two-minute kissing spree—where the other just has to lavish them with kisses. The combination of trivia and affection creates an unforgettable way to spend your evening.

7. Kisses Through Time

Now, this one is a reflection of both history and romance, making it deeply unique. Each of you comes up with a different kissing style inspired by various historical or cultural traditions. For instance, you could try something inspired by romantic literature, imagining yourself like Romeo and Juliet, or recreating a classic movie kiss like the famous one between Rhett Butler and Scarlett O’Hara.

You could take it further—a “Victorian” kiss (on the hand, but with a lingering glance), a chivalric knight-inspired kiss (where he bows slightly to you), or perhaps something inspired by Song of Solomon’s intimate but poetic language. It’s part roleplay, part deeper appreciation for the timelessness of love between soulmates.

This game reminds us of the universality of love across eras, cultures, and faiths. As Virgil wrote in the Aeneid, “Love conquers all.” Plus, it’s a reminder of how incredible it is that God’s design for love has always transcended mere time and space.

For couples who enjoy creativity and an extra touch of romance, this game can bring vibrancy to your relationship and inspire gratitude for the historical richness of human love.

8. The “Random Acts of Kisses” Challenge

This one is perfect because it plays on spontaneity throughout your day. The goal is simple: Without warning, as many times as you like in one day or even one week, surprise each other with kisses. But there’s a twist—every kiss needs to have a reason.

For example, he could surprise you with a kiss and say, “That’s because you’re glowing today,” or “That’s just for being an amazing prayer partner.” Maybe your kiss comes with, “That’s for making me laugh so hard earlier.” By the end of the day—or week—you’ll both feel closer not only because of the physical connection but also because of the verbal affirmations you’ve shared.

This game ties beautifully into God’s emphasis on gratitude. As 1 Thessalonians 5:18 reminds us, “Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” Sharing your reasons for gratitude through playful kisses is a sweet way to live out this verse while growing closer as a couple.

9. The Love Languages Kiss Game

This game revolves around identifying and playing into each other’s love languages—especially if one of them is physical touch! The rules are simple: Take turns guessing the other’s love language-based desires by expressing affection in different ways—for example, combining acts of service with a kiss while bringing him something sweet, or whispering meaningful words before leaning in for a kiss.

If you can “guess” his preferred expression correctly, you earn a kiss from him. If it doesn’t land quite right, he gets to lovingly guide you to what makes him feel most cherished—and vice versa. This is a game that fosters growth and understanding in addition to some sweet kisses!

It’s a living version of the complex beauty of love described in The Five Love Languages by Gary Chapman. Through this game, you’ll begin to see how affection isn’t just physical—it’s a reflection of the care and thoughtfulness behind it. As Thomas à Kempis said, “Whoever loves much, does much.”

10. The “Waiting Game” Kissing Contest

For couples who love a little friendly competition, this game gets exciting! One of you initiates a kiss… but then pulls away just enough to stop it for a few seconds. The other person’s challenge? To wait and not lean in again—but if they “fail” and lean in first, they owe the “winner” a future favor (like cooking dinner, picking the next date night activity, etc.).

It’s playful, silly, and honestly, a little bit hard. There’s something magnetic about resisting that pull—especially when you’re in love—but that’s kind of the point. When we think about restraint and anticipation within relationships, it mirrors the idea that self-discipline and intentionality make love richer. In a way, this game can be a cheeky nod to the virtue of patience, reflecting the spirit of Galatians 5:22, “The fruit of the Spirit is… self-control.”

Between bursts of laughter and moments of intimacy, a game like this reminds you both how strong your connection is—even when it’s tested.

Final Thoughts

Kissing games don’t just bring in playfulness—they elevate the bond between you as you both explore laughter, romance, and connection. For Christian couples, these games can also deepen the sense of honoring God within intimacy. After all, when approached with gratitude and purity of heart, even something as simple as a shared kiss becomes an act of love inspired by divine design.

Love deeply, laugh often, and leave room for God in the spark between you. And as St. Teresa of Avila said, “Accustom yourself continually to make many acts of love, for they enkindle and melt the soul.”
