About this book

If you’re a human being, then you’re a sexual being. But what is your sexuality for? That’s a question we often struggle to answer because we find it so hard to talk about our powerful and personal sexual feelings - perhaps especially if we’re Christians.

Ed Shaw explores the Bible’s deepest answers to this question in ways that will help everyone to appreciate and enjoy God’s purposeful gift of sexuality – whatever your past history, current situation or sexual orientation might be.

Endorsements

Compassionate, hopeful and biblical. This is a must-read for all Christians, and a great help as we navigate the vital issues around sexuality.

Gavin Calver CEO, Evangelical Alliance

A short, clear and often profound book on one of our generation's most pressing subjects. Ed Shaw has served us superbly with Purposeful Sexuality.

Andrew Wilson Teaching Pastor, King's Church London; Author, God of All Things

This wise, sensitive book has a great deal to offer all of us as we attend to the desires, questions and struggles arising from our nature as sexual beings. Its contemporary frame of reference, combined with careful reading of relevant biblical texts, makes it all the more valuable.

Julian Hardyman Senior Pastor, Eden Baptist Church, Cambridge

Customer Reviews

5.00 stars Thoughtful and compassionate

 

This book is clear, goes beyond easy answers, and enters into the difficulties faced by people whose experience of sex (or the lack of it) leaves them disillusioned. It has a message of hope and beauty for all Christians.

5.00 stars Fantastic, encouraging book

 

This short but wise book gives an excellent overview of the life-giving biblical teaching on sexuality. It helps to make sense of the God-given boundaries for sexual expression and encourages all of us - single or married, whoever we’re attracted to - to allow our sexualities to draw us deeper into the heart of God’s love and purposes. I highly recommend this book.

5.00 stars Much needed!

 

Ed Shaw carefully considers why we have been made sexual beings and why it is important we follow the Bibles teaching on sex and marriage. This guide is so needed in a world that says we shouldn’t go God’s way.
