"Bell raises the bar with this evocative follow-up to last year's
bestseller Velvet Elvis....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 messiness 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. Publishers Weekly |
