Sex God: Exploring the Endless Connections Between Sexuality and Spirituality by Rob Bell
3.0
Rob Bell has a writing style similar to Donald Miller—conversational, lilting, and weaving personal stories with broader spiritual themes. Rob Bell is primarily a pastor. Donald Miller is primarily an author. I think this difference is key.
While this book did open up my eyes to new concepts and perspectives of sexuality, I wish that Bell had said these things in a film. He writes like he is talking to you, and I think the medium should be appropriate to the subject matter.
That said (written?) Bell explained Jewish traditions and Hebrew words in a down-to-earth way that brought depth and value to God's physical illustrations and words. I liked that.
