Here is the link to my review on my blog: http://polyliteramore.blogspot.com/2016/03/loveology.html
Loveology, written by Pastor John Mark Comer, breaks down the essence of a true relationship into a raw, unfiltered conversation threaded with his own autobiographical touch. He addresses everything from dating and gender roles to the deeper aspects of marriage, all while supporting his thoughts with Scripture.

I'd give this to youth/young adults with lots of questions. Frames the conversation really well, and generally digs into the harder conversations. Casts a pretty biblical vision of love and marriage. Not sure what more you could want from a book trying to tackle an immense, nuanced, charged subject.

Loveology by John Mark Comer explores the topics of love, marriage and sexual ethics. It aims to answer many complicated questions around those topics and gives a good overview of what the Bible has to say about male female relationships.
I am a big fan of John Mark Comer and there were many sections of the book I really loved and enjoyed.
However, in my opinion the book ignores the fact that most people have experienced some form of sexual trauma, abuse or hurt. The teaching that if we remain "pure" until marriage will result in us having sex in marriage that is instantly amazing and blissful is untrue and harmful.
That being said, John Mark Comer paints a beautiful picture of the ideal God orginally designed. I just think the book falls short in acknowledging the work and healing that is needed to get there beyond not crossing certain lines.

SO GOOD. for anyone at any stage in life. Goes through the purpose of marriage, how believers should approach relationships, where the stumbling starts, and the purpose/benefits of sex. refreshing and biblically sound, he wasn't adding information between lines. 10/10!

This book truly is so eye opening and totally changed my view on relationships. It creates a shift exposing the lies of culture and helping us to see the teachings of Jesus. A must read!!
