Sure, it's a book about sex, but it's so much more than that:
Virgin. Married. Active. Abused. Confused. Alone. Loved. Forgotten. Frustrated...
for these people (as well as myself) this book is a comfort, but also an inspiration.Rob Bell knows how to turn his knowledge and love for God into applicable wisdom and enjoyment.
"Velvet Elvis" is perhaps even more ground breaking. It makes me think. It makes me jump up and sing at the top of my lungs unintelligible yet thoroughly expressive sounds: the only thing one can do when her heart is about to explode with feelings unidentified - with energy found new in a cosmic mystery. You know you're a part of something huge when you can't touch it, you can't see it - so you sing, and you love.
