Sex God: Exploring the Endless Connections Between Sexuality And Spirituality Sex God: Exploring the Endless Connections Between Sexuality And Spirituality by Rob Bell


My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I have heard a lot about Rob Bell and seen several of his NOOMA videos. If you have heard him speak, or seen one of his videos, this book seems to follow that type of story telling approach. Connecting things that we all do everyday or hear about or think about to God and how He engages us to have a relationship with Him.
I found in this book that Rob does do a great job of reminding all of us of the value God has in each of us and that He continues to remind us of His desires for us through many of the ways He has set up the world...marriage, the Exodus, and the New Testament scriptures all have repeating patterns in the way God talks to us and reminds us of the way He has established the way things work...and also shows why there can be such pain when that which was made for good is not used in the way God intended.
I think that this book can be really poignant and would be an incredibly good read for people who are engaged to be married...as Rob does a good job of speaking to the sacrifice that is necessary in a marriage to make it work.
