Sexuality Bundle

The Ink Is Dry by Rubel Shelly

The book in your hands is for people seeking to understand what the Bible says to Christians of every generation and cultural placement about marriage, family, and sexual responsibility.

This book is not a political appeal to bind Christian morality through law. It is an appeal, instead, for Christians to live the distinctive life to which God has called us in Christ Jesus.

Paul's rhetorical question in 1 Corinthians 5:12 still rings in our ears: "While we are not responsible for what outsiders to the faith may do with their lives, do we not have a duty to those people who are members of our congregations of believers?"

The ink is dry on the critical issue of what Christians are to regard as marriage. The ink is dry on the fidelity Christian husbands and wives are expected to exhibit toward each other. Equally, the ink is dry on the present-day disputes around same-sex behaviors. With love and respect for those in our culture who adopt and live to other standards, the norm for Christian behavior is fixed within a tradition that is more than 3,000 years old.

While denouncing homophobia and verbal or physical abuse against the LGBTQ+ community, Shelly makes a cogent case from Scripture, history, and reason for Christians to honor God's design for sex and marriage.

Sexuality Examined by Jerry Jones

In Sexuality Examined, Jerry Jones makes a case for historical Christian stance on sexuality by lovingly evaluating the affirming case that revisionists make for same-sex marriage, committed lesbian relationships, gender fluidity, and more. He acknowledges objections revisionists give and responds with clarity. Christians who follow the historical understanding of these things and those who struggle with that understanding will find woven through this book truth spoken in love to guide them into God's intention for their sexuality. 

Male & Female God Created Them by Rubel Shelly

Male and Female God Created Them: A Biblical Review of LGBTQ+ Claims is a comprehensive analysis of the biblical perspective on same-sex relationships and LGBTQ+ issues. Rubel Shelly, driven by a personal experience of referring someone to a Christian counselor who failed to provide biblically grounded guidance, sets out to explore the topic in depth. Male and Female examines the biblical teachings on sexual ethics, delving into history, linguistics, and theology to provide a thorough understanding of the subject. Shelly’s goal is to help readers understand the traditional Christian view on same-sex relationships, while also promoting kindness, love, and gentleness towards individuals within the LGBTQ+ community. The book aims to equip readers to navigate the complexities of the issue and to provide guidance to those struggling with their own identities or relationships. With a focus on biblical orthodoxy and compassion, the book seeks to clarify the Christian perspective on LGBTQ+ issues.
