Smedes's \u003ci\u003eSex for Christians\u003c\/i\u003e offers a frank yet compassionate discussion that is refreshingly open-minded and strongly biblical. The book is divided into three major sections. The first, Sex and Christian People, overviews human sexuality -- its created goodness, its sinful distortions, and its redeemed potential -- what we are as human sexual beings. Part Two, Sex and Single People, and Part Three, Sex and Married People, are about sexual behavior in each succeeding stage of life -- the things we do as sexual beings. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith the addition of an extensive epilogue, Smedes brings his text into clear focus with today's pressing issues -- AIDS, cohabitation, homosexuality, and the need to develop Christian strategies regarding sex. And with the hindsight of two decades since \u003ci\u003eSex for Christians\u003c\/i\u003e first came out, Smedes presents an even stronger statement of his two sources of authority: the Bible's moral standards regarding sex, and the authority of reality as we discern it. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSmedes's attempt to present a Christian perspective for a truly human sexual life has resulted in a sexual morality that, within a biblical perspective, is as liberating as it is limiting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e William B.
