"The Bible is the most important book the world has for all generations. The Bible is our guide to faith and life. Nothing can compete with it or improve it. But in Dr. Christopher Yuan’s Holy Sexuality and the Gospel, you are holding in your hands the most important humanly composed book about biblical sexuality and godly living for our times."
-Rosaria Butterfield, PhD, speaker and author of The Secret Thoughts of an Unlikely Convert, Openness Unhindered, and The Gospel Comes with a House Key.
“I read a lot of books, and Holy Sexuality and the Gospel is on the shortlist of most important books I’ve read in the past decade. There’s a desperate need for a biblically astute and theologically grounded yet warm and personal approach to human identity and how it does and doesn’t relate to gender and sexuality. This is that book. Holy Sexuality and the Gospel is profoundly relevant in an age of toxic confusion. It should be read by every person questioning their sexual identity as well as by every pastor, parent, friend, or sibling.”
-Randy Alcorn, author of Heaven, Happiness, and The Purity Principle and director of Eternal Perspective Ministries
“A truly breathtaking book that unpacks the soul issues of gender. This book not only gets at the heart of sexuality; it gets at the heart of the gospel. Yuan is an insightful thinker and keen storyteller.”
-J. D. Greear, author of Not God Enough, sixty-second president of the Southern Baptist Convention, and pastor of the Summit Church in Raleigh-Durham, NC
From the author of Out of a Far Country, which details his dramatic conversion from an agnostic gay man who put his identity in his sexuality to a Bible professor who now puts his identity in Christ alone, comes a gospel-centered discussion of sex, desire, and relationships.
Dr. Christopher Yuan explores the concept of holy sexuality--chastity in singleness or faithfulness in marriage--in a practical and relevant manner, equipping readers with an accessible yet robust theology of sexuality. Whether you want to share Christ with a loved one who identifies as gay or you're wrestling with questions of identity yourself, this book will help you better understand sexuality in light of God's grand story and realize that holy sexuality is actually good news for all.

What the Christian NEEDS to do is butt out. It's none ya business. If you're going to talk about it, at least get an education both about human sexuality AND what the bible is talking about in those verses in that part of the bible you say has been done away with. It's discussing male penetration of another male for the purpose of SHAMING, not sexual, no romantically. It nowhere discusses women's same sex as prohibited. And if you don't have to follow the food rules and the feast observances or even the 7th day Sabbath, for pity's sake, why do you think that these isolated verses in Leviticus made the cut? And Paul was a poser who told you NOT TO EVEN GET MARRIED. I don't see Christians stopping getting married to be biblical. To say nothing that there's exactly ZERO precedent in your bible for DATING. Fathers arranged all the marriages in that book based on the increase of status a match would provide, not love, not romance, not even praying about what "god's" will was. How's about you go back to that BEFORE you're in someone else's business. Minding your OWN business is a full time job.

If you love someone who is a drug addict, you will mess in their business.
Why? Because it leads to destruction.
