About this ebook

The purpose of our sexuality is not self-discovery but to understand God’s love.

We tend to have pockets of our lives dominated by the flesh and driven by cultural wisdom. For many, sexuality is one of those pockets. Christians are confused about God’s views on sex and intimacy. In today’s culture, we struggle to grasp the meaning or purpose of our sexuality. We don't know how to make sense of our temptation, shame, brokenness, longings, or desires. What is more, Christian churches and families are divided in the nuances of sexuality, neglecting Jesus’ most important call to be unified as His body.

Recognized expert in biblical sexuality Dr. Juli Slattery brings her years of experience, biblical knowledge, and passion for the Lord in applying the call of Christians to surrender their views, questions, and pain to the God who changes everything. Surrendered Sexuality provides a clear, biblical understanding of the significance of our sexuality and the transformational power of Christ. Readers discover how Jesus gave His life not primarily to change behavior, but to renew our identity—which is rooted in our union with Christ, not our wounds, feelings, desires, past or present sins, or purity.

We’re living amid tremendous cultural confusion and pain. But we will not be able to offer life and hope without the fire of God’s love first passing through us. Surrendered Sexuality provides the biblical wisdom, help, and encouragement we all need.
