GOD MAKES SEX GREAT! by Dr. Renier Holtzhausen & Prof. Hennie Stander (Metropolis Ink)

Why did a gynecologist in Pretoria, South Africa, and a University of Pretoria professor of biblical languages write a book about religion and sex? What's the connection? Read on...

GOD MAKES SEX GREAT! will show you how your sexuality works, and how to set it free within God's framework; how to achieve sexual harmony with the one you love; and how to enrich the autumn years by using your sexuality to the full. Unconventional and different.

GOD MAKES SEX GREAT! is the first book to explain the physical, emotional and religious aspects of sex at the same time. It looks again at some of the Biblical texts in light of modern research; this book tells us what God really says about sex.

Dr. Holtzhausen, a gynecologist in Pretoria, South Africa, says, "I realized early in my practice that the fear and guilt complexes so many women have about sex arise from ignorance and the idea that sex is sinful.

"The majority of boys and girls - even in today's 'permissive society - don't understand the real meaning of sex, and where it fits into their lives. The 'sin hangup about sex is just as bad. Too many young people associate sex with sin because they are continually warned about temptations and how to resist them. Instead of having it explained to them that they can fully explore their sexuality within God's boundaries."

His co-author, University of Pretoria Prof. Hennie Stander is a specialist in the biblical languages of Greek, Hebrew, and Aramaic. He says that through the centuries, translators of the bible had changed the meaning of some of the verses. They did not want to offend by talking about sex.

For their book, Stander re-translated the original writings that have a bearing on sex. The original translations are used throughout this book. This combination of religious background and medical facts brings unique freshness and originality to an important aspect of peoples' lives.

GOD MAKES SEX GREAT! will show you how your sexuality works, how to set it free within God's framework, to achieve sexual harmony with the one you love, and to enrich your autumn years by using your sexuality to the full. Learn what God really says about sex, and how He wants us to enjoy sex without feeling guilty.
