Eros Defiled: The Christian and Sexual Sin

By John White

Book Overview

Something happened to love--eros, physical love--when mankind fell. The beauty was marred. The joy was tinged with sadness. Eros was defiled.Today the results of the Fall are evident in premartial sex, extramartial sex, masturbation, homosexuality, and various forms of twisted sex. John White speaks with understanding and compassion about each of these sexual sins. He concludes with a telling chapter of how local churches can be communities for dealing with sexual sin in a context of love and forgiveness.

Better than Ever Man's Battle

Eros defiled is not a light or easy read like Every Man's Battle, but it was a balanced take on Christian sexuality, and didn't use guilt to bully the reader into submission.
