Rob Bell reviews

with one comment


I’ve just started reading “Sex God” by Rob Bell. It is BRILLIANT. Dare I say it, better than Velvet Elvis… we are both reading it when the other isn’t around and are gripped.

It sucks that Rob gets so much flack over his work. This is about new humanity. About God restoring people. About us being procreating expressions of a creative Creator. It’s about a robust Biblical theology of redemption and restoration.

It is BRILLIANT.

And don’t just take my word for it. Here is a great review by Ben Witherington.

And while we’re at it, here are his reviews of the Nooma videos (Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3) and Velvet Elvis.

  1. I’m a few pages away from finishing Velvet Elvis, and feel challenged and inspired. Is great reading, really refreshing. Thanks for the recommendation for the next one!
