Product Description
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.

 SexGod is an amazing book July 24, 2008
Everyone who is getting married should read this book. Everyone who is dating should read this book. Everyone who is single should read this book. Everyone who is married, divorce, widow or whatever should read this book. Specially, everyone who would like to learn more about God's love an his connection with us should read this. I love this book. My friends and I had a discussion (book club) about the book and we all came to the same conclusion: we want and need to read it over and over again. Love it!

It isn't fair to critique a book I haven't read. That being said, the title and the contents offend me right from the start. "SexGod": It doesn't take a genius to observe our current culture and the trashiness that exists--and this "author" will join together in a title what humans have abused with the One who created it (to be enjoyed within the confines of marriage)?
Have some RESPECT for the holy God!! The Jews, out of reverence for God won't even type or write out his name as we do. They will use G-d!
And the name of the chapters: "God Wears Lipstick", "Leather, Whips and Fruit", "Whoopee Forever". No further comment.
Just read the Bible! See our sin, and how a Holy God cannot have fellowship (connection) with sin, and how he provided redemption Rev. 5:9 "with your blood you purchased men for God". Read Revelation and how God has a future in Heaven, perfect, free from sin. Rev 4:8: "Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty...".
Whoopee forever? Not. Worship God forever, oh yes!
 Age-Old Subject, New Ideas July 6, 2008
I would recommend "Sex God" to anyone really -- whether you're in a casual relationship or completely celibate. In the book, Rob Bell approaches the often-avoided topic of sex with practicality and an open mind.
I didn't feel this book pushed a particular agenda or preached. It simply explored. Bell offers a range of ideas formed around the framework of a strong faith in God. What is sex? How is God expressed in sex? Is it OK for us to have sex? What does sex mean? All these urgent questions are approached tactfully and frankly at the same time.
I enjoyed this read.
Sex God review June 27, 2008

The book was awesome and has great insight, and you can definitely learn a lot and be encouraged, but you should be real careful because some theological point are sacrificed a little bit or stretched to make other points. Other than that its a great read, fast read, and is definitely encouraging.

Rob makes a great case for merging the physical and the spiritual. It's about much more than just our sexuality in relationship to our spirituality. Good book for challenging a small group to think through the ramifications of traditional thought systems.
