Sex

Little Black Books #2

by Scott Perry

What's the deal with sex anyway? Is it basically just a physical need that we should satisfy whenever and however we please? Or is it something dirty and sinful that a good Christian person should have nothing to do with?

According to Scott Petty, God has a design for sexuality that is much better than both of these options. Scott also deals with some of the common questions young people have about sex:

- How far can I go physically with my girlfriend or boyfriend?
- Is the Bible anti-homosexual?
- What about pornography?

Like all the Little Black Books, it's a fun read and gets straight to the point.

[Alyssa · Rating 4 out of 5]

Clear,concise and helpful

[Bill Forgeard · Rating 4 out of 5]

A short punchy book presenting the Christian perspective on sex, aimed at teenagers. Scott Petty strikes a good balance between saying what needs to be said without saying too much. It's honest, forthright, confronting and kind of funny. A book like this is always going to be laughed at by many, but anyone who reads it throughtfully will find a helpful and convincing approach to a topic that many Christians have given up trying to address. He talks about 1) God's good purposes for sex, 2) Dating relationships, 3) Homophobia and 4) Pornography. I would happily give it my kids when they're old enough.

Great for youth, another perspective

This book was simple like the author intended, geared to young persons, rated 5 stars because it is what it describes to be.
