What does God want?

I saw a talk show today featuring Mark and Grace Driskoll.  He is a pastor (nobody claims to be a televangelist these days) of a mega-church.  The two of them wrote a book advising us that God wants us to be adventurous in bed.  God wants us to enjoy sex - but only if "we" means a heterosexual married couple.
That works for me.  I have been married to a heterosexual for nearly twenty-nine years, and I wouldn't mind if God wanted us to have great sex.
I just wonder if God is terribly concerned about the quality (or adventurousness) of my sex life.  I rather suspect that God is more concerned about "people of God" who tell masses of people what He wants.  Personally, I would rather hear it from God instead of a pastor.  I always worry that a middleman may get the message wrong.
Also, I cannot find anything in the Bible that condemns lesbians.  Any passages about homosexuality refer to males, not females.  Lay off the lesbians (no pun intended).
