Loveology: God. Love. Marriage. Sex. and the Never-Ending Story of Male and Female.

Product Information

I don’t agree with much of the interpretations of the Genesis account nor Ephesians 5 presented in this book. Each topic breaks down into a chapter: marriage, love, sexuality, romance and dating, singleness, masculinity, and femininity, ending with an in-depth Q + A dealing with the most asked questions about sexuality and relationships. So I am not frustrated about these concepts for my own self, but for the lack of compassion it has towards people who are shamed by the church. So many golden nuggets in this read and I've already pursuaded the women in my life to purchase and have a read. John's definition of love is blatant and clear-cut—"This is love: notthat we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as anatoning sacrifice for our sins.

Sex, love, marriage, romance, dating and singleness—what went wrong after the Garden of Eden beginning? Finally-- a theology of love that will help you navigate the confusing waters of modern relationship. Not only did the author mention a false statistic, but he spent time to expand and emphasize things ABOUT this false statistic. For a generation of Christian youth bombarded by messages and images saturated with sex, it’s a timely and needed book. With an autobiographical thread that turns a book into a story, pastor and speaker John Mark Comer shares about what is right in male/female relationships - what God intended in the Garden.Over and over again, the authors of the New Testament point to Jesus' death on the cross as the ultimate act of self-giving love. That said, there were several good points that were made that did not rely on or connote gender roles or sexual orientations. John Mark’s descriptions of his own experiences are refreshing and much-needed in today’s society, as they paint a picture of a healthy relationship, marriage, and sex life centered around the Creator.

The Loveology video-based Bible study is for anyone who wants to learn what the Scriptures have to say about sexuality and relationships and for people who want to ask the why questions and get intelligent, grace-and-truth answers. When I'm not reading, I can be found around a table with my family and friends, attempting to learn how to cook, drinking Heart coffee, and walking the family dog in the forest.

When we say we love someone, we mean we have deep feelings of affection because they make us feel alive all over again—adventurous, brave, happy. As a single 17 year old girl who like most others girls my age constantly ponders in thoughts of boys, relationships and marriage this book has been everything I need in refocusing my views to where they need to be.

Portland pastor John Mark Comer asks the why questions, and offers intelligent, biblical, grace-and-truth answers. It is useful being in a pre-marital stage of life myself, as I found the advice helpful in my own stage of life and I think the majority of people, particularly new Christians will hear some profound and transformative truths for the first time. John Mark Comer is the New York Times bestselling author of Live No Lies, The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry, and four previous books.

The book plays into common weaknesses of soft complementarian, evangelical talk of love and sex (which I've heard and received most of my life). This is a book for singles, engaged couples, and the newly married—both inside and outside the church—who want to learn what the Scriptures have to say about sexuality and relationships. As a not-for-profit, the volunteers and paid team of contractors at Loveology are as efficient and effective as possible with every dollar we receive from generous people like you. I like the way he examines 21st century ideas and assumptions about love, courtship and marriage, contrasting how the culture of Bible times differed from ours.
