Faithful

A Theology of Sex

De: Beth Felker Jones, Gene L. Green

Narrado por: Diana Batarseh, John Behrens

Many believers accept traditional Christian sexual morality but have very little idea why it matters for the Christian life. In Faithful, author Beth Felker Jones sketches a theology of sexuality that demonstrates sex is not about legalistic morals with no basis in reality but rather about the God who is faithful to us.

In Hosea 2:19-20 God says to Israel, “I will take you for my wife forever; I will take you for my wife in righteousness and in justice, in steadfast love, and in mercy. I will take you for my wife in faithfulness; and you shall know the Lord.” This short book explores the goodness of sexuality as created and redeemed, and it suggests ways to navigate the difficulties of living in a world in which sexuality, like everything else, suffers the effects of the fall.

As part of Zondervan’s Ordinary Theology series, Faithful takes a deeper look at a subject Christians talk about often but not always thoughtfully. This short, insightful reflection explores the deeper significance of the body and sexuality.

The Greater View of Being a Sexual Person

I love the way Dr. Felker-Jones presented a Theology of Sexuality in this book. I believe it will inspire the Christian to live in a world that needs a clear vision of what sexuality is, to bring glory to God in how we live pure lives. I highly recommend this book to you.
