What if, in trying to be faithful to the beauty of God's design for man and woman, the church has instead latched onto a pagan concept of our nature and missed the theological meaning of our sexes? We've inadvertently robbed both men and women of the dignity of personhood as created in the image of God. Then we miss the beautiful message that our bodies, and our whole selves as men and women, tell: the story of the great joy in which the Son received the gift of his bride the church. Through an exploration of the Song of Songs, Aimee Byrd examines what this often-ignored book can teach us about Christ, his church, man, and woman. The church is ripe for a sexual reformation, and recovering a good theological footing is imperative to it. Beyond invites you to enter into the Song's treasures as its lyrics reveal the point of it all-not a list of roles and hierarchy, but a love song. Book jacket.
