Every once in a while, I read a book that frequently provokes involuntary YES’s and AMEN’s. The new book Shameless by Nadia Bolz-Weber is one of those types of books. In Shameless, Bolz-Weber, a Lutheran pastor, writer, and speaker, examines some of the toxic messages and practices within Christianity related to sex and sexuality. And she offers some promising healthy alternatives.

This book makes a great follow up to Sanctuary’s recent 5-part teaching series called God, Gender, & Human Sexuality. (If you missed those teachings, you can listen to all of them here.)

If you read the book, I’d love to hear what you think!
