Sex God: Exploring the Endless Connections Between Sexuality and Spirituality

Just as the physical world is linked with deeper spiritual realities, sex and God are intimately connected. But how? With unusual beauty and insight, Bell addresses this intriguing question to help you better understand that we can't talk about ourselves as sexual beings without asking who made us that way. An enlightening exploration of sexuality and spirituality. 208 pages, softcover from Zondervan.

God and sex go together. You can’t separate the two, says Rob Bell, because this physical world is intimately linked to deeper spiritual realities. And so, in order to make sense of sexuality, at some point you have to talk about God. With beauty and unusual insight, Sex God explores this connection.

“Bell raises the bar with this evocative follow-up to last year’s bestseller Velvet Elvis. ‘Is sex a picture of
heaven?’ he wonders. It’s all about God and sex and heaven, he says, ‘…they’re connected. And they can’t
be separated. Where the one is you will always find the other.’ Bell’s book isn’t a sex manual, an exploration of the differences between men and women or a marriage how-to, though all of that is here. Instead, it’s
the story of God becoming human, of humans mirroring God and love made manifest in the chaos of our
humanity. Sex God is about relationships revealed in a way that elevates the human condition and offers
hope to those whose relationships are wounded. In Bell’s spare, somewhat oblique style, he addresses lust,
respect, denial, risk, acceptance, and more. His love for God and the Bible is clear, as is his ability to ask probing questions and offer answers that make readers think deeply about their own lives. He does a fine job
using the Bible and real life to show that our physical relationships are really about spiritual relationships.
This book joyfully ties, and then tightens, the knot between God and humankind.” — Publisher’s Weekly
