About this audiobook
From the author of Out of a Far Country, which details his dramatic conversion from an agnostic gay man who put his identity in his sexuality to a Bible professor who now puts his identity in Christ alone, comes a gospel-centered discussion of sex, desire, and relationships. Dr. Christopher Yuan explores the concept of holy sexuality--chastity in singleness or faithfulness in marriage--in a practical and relevant manner, equipping readers with an accessible yet robust theology of sexuality. Whether you want to share Christ with a loved one who identifies as gay or you're wrestling with questions of identity yourself, this book will help you better understand sexuality in light of God's grand story and realize that holy sexuality is actually good news for all.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Very well written so far. Concise with perfect depth in terms of the topics discussed.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I have no doubt that this book has and will continue to cause controversy. I struggled with parts of it myself. But the author is able to speak with authority precisely because he speaks from experience. If we are never challenged in our beliefs then we aren't reading Scripture correctly. Did I agree with everything he wrote. No. But my eyes were opened to what it truly means to be a follower of Jesus.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A thorough, thoughtful and relevant treatise of very important topics. He walks the talk and also backs himself Scripturally and philosophically in a relevant way. A very helpful text. Thank you.
