ambience > that which surrounds or emcomposses; environment. Is it possible to live in community with God every minute of our lives - have an interactive relationship with God and with his Son, Jesus, within the abiding ambience of the Holy Spirit... Welcome to my Journal and my journey of discovering spiritual formation. This blog will mainly be my thoughts on bible passages as I look for the path to a "with-God" existence.

SexGod



I recieved this book in the mail yesterday (after ordering it of course). I haven't started it yet but I did read the intro (have a couple of other books to get through first). The author is Rob Bell. Here is a paragraph out of the intro;

Sex.God. They're connected. And they can't be seperated. Where the one is, you will always find the other. This is a book about how sexuality is the "this" and spirituality is the "that". To make sense of the one,we have to explore the other

And that is what this book is about.

Sounds great already!

I spend a large amount of my work time educating on the subject of sexual health, the more I learn about it, the more I realise how dominant sex and sexuality is in our lives, I have absolutely recognised the link between sexuality and spirituality.

It makes sense and it is re-assuring that God is involved in this too. As I draw into a "with-God" life, it pleases me to know that I will learn more about my sexuality - relationships, intimacy, physical being, emotions etc.
