Book Overview

The Bible has a way of shocking us. If Americans could still blush, we might blush at the words, "Rejoice in the wife of your youth, a lovely deer, a graceful doe. Let her breasts fill you at all times with delight; be intoxicated always in her love" (Proverbs 5:18-19).

But, of course, sin always tries to trash God's gifts. So we can't just celebrate sex for what God made it to be; we have to fight what sin turned it into. The contributors to this unique volume encourage you to do both: celebrate and struggle.

This book has something for all-men and women, married and single-from contributors like John Piper, C. J. and Carolyn Mahaney, Mark Dever, Al Mohler, Carolyn McCulley, and others.

What An Eye Opener

By Thriftbooks.com User, April 20, 2006

In the eleven years I have been married I have read many Christian books on dating, marriage, relationships and sexual intimacy. Several of them have been mixtures of psychology and theology at best. Others were solidly grounded in scripture. Sex and the Supremacy of Christ falls into the latter category. In fact, it is unlike any book that I have ever read on the topic of sex. If you're single, check it out. If you're engaged,...

This book needed to be written a long time ago!

By Thriftbooks.com User, August 25, 2005

Last Spring, Justin Taylor of Between Two Worlds Blog (and Desiring God Ministries) put out a call for bloggers to review a book he had a part in - Sex and the Supremecy of Christ. I was one of the lucky few who got in early enough to be blessed with the opportunity, and below entails my thoughts on the book. First, I would like to comment on how appropriate the subject for the book is for Christians today. As Christians,...

Excellent all around resource

By Thriftbooks.com User, August 3, 2005

recommend this book as a solid resource for churches, Christian leaders and individuals to teach and understand a total view of practical and Biblical teaching on human sexuality. Even though the book is a group effort of twelve different writers, it is comprehensive enough to challenge every Christian to grasp the concept that sexuality is not only good, but a God ordained creation for living as the creatures that he has...

Collection of Vast Wisdom

By Thriftbooks.com User, June 27, 2005

It is always big news when a new book is released under John Piper's name. Sex and the Supremacy of Christ, while listing Piper as a co-editor, contains only a few pages of Piper's writing, with the rest being written by eleven other authors. The book is divided into five parts and eleven chapters. Allow me to provide a brief overview of each of these. The first part is entitled "God and Sex." The first two chapters comprise...
