Summary:
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. Included is a DVD with material from the Desiring God national conference, "Sex and the Supremacy of Christ, " held in Minneapolis in 2004. Sin always tries to trash Godś gifts. So we cant́ 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.
