Summary: Rob Bell disgusts me
Comment: First of all, why isn't anyone else more than appalled that Rob Bell would besmirch the name of God, let alone the nature of God just to sell a few thousand books. The man should be ashamed. Rob Bell is nothing more than a wolf in sheep's clothing leading thousands down the path to destruction in the supposed name of our Lord. Jesus's brother Jude as well as Jesus himself warn us to be on the lookout for apostates that will come in the name of the Lord but actually be from the devil. Rob Bell is one of those. "That's impossible" you say! "Rob tells us all about the loving nature of God and how warm and squishy He makes us feel." Why do you think that he's so successful? It's because REAL Christianity is hard. It takes sacrifice, discipline and a total commitment. With Rob Bell's version you get Jesus Lite. The problem is that you won't get to Heaven his way.
What should a person do to get to Heaven? If you said, "There is no Heaven" or "You just have to live a good life", YOU ARE WRONG. Stay with me and find out why. Let's see if you've been a good person. Jesus said "Whoever looks with lust has committed adultery in their heart". Have you ever lusted? Have you hated anyone(committed murder in your heart)? Have you made a god in your mind to suit yourself(idolatry)? Have you used God's name in vain? Have you ever stolen anything regardless of value? If you have then you are a thief. If you have told just one lie, then you are a liar and CANNOT get into heaven. On Judgment Day you will be found guilty and end up in Hell forever. But that's not God's will. We broke his Law but because Jesus paid our fine by dying on the cross, God can forgive us. If you repent and trust the Savior, God will forgive your sins and grant you everlasting life. So confess your sins to God today, put your faith in Christ, and obey God. Read John 14:21

Summary: changed my life.
Comment: this book changed my view of myself as an individual and God as the creator and giver of love.

Summary: Antiquated
Comment: Should have looked more closely at the author before purchasing. Although it's a refreshing view of the beauty of sex and the spiritual connection it creates between you and God, it also has a very conservative sexual undercurrent. My sense was that the author would not consider a queer relationship as applicable to his theory and he also strongly advocates for abstinence before marriage, which is something that I think is antiquated.

Summary: Divorced Dad Loves This Book
Comment: I am a divorced single dad, who has really spent the last few years just wondering how to put things back together. I am a strong Christian who is very active in a supportive church. This book has clarified some confusing questions I have have about starting another relationship after vowing to be with my now ex-wife untill the end of time. Rob Bell's writing has also shown me other quetions I need to ask myself, and has also shown me how great a sexual relationship can be. This book would be a great resource for any couple.

Editorial Reviews:

God and sex go together. You can’t separate the two, says Rob Bell, because this physical world is intimately linked to deeper spiritual realities. And so, in order to make sense of sexuality, at some point you have to talk about God. With beauty and unusual insight, Sex God explores this connection.
