About this ebook

Discover wisdom from Scripture that will help you navigate the confusing waters of love and relationships in today’s world.

In Loveology, pastor and New York Times bestselling author John Mark Comer helps you understand what the Bible has to say about sexuality, romance, singleness, and what it means to be male and female.

In the beginning, God created Adam. Then he made Eve. And ever since we've been picking up the pieces. Love and hate. Marriage and divorce. Sexuality and adultery. Romance and heartache. Love is the source of our highest highs and lowest lows. We see the messiness of love all around us and are left with so many questions about what love really is.

Amid all this confusion and pain, Loveology offers you a fresh, hopeful, biblical perspective on love that starts with marriage and works backward. Comer helps you understand what is right in male/female relationships—what God intended in the Garden. And about what is wrong—the fallout in a post-Eden world. Comer shows how when you let Scripture transform your understanding of love it will transform your relationships and your life.

This book brings honesty, wit, and compassion to one of life’s most beautiful and challenging areas and ends with a raw, uncut, anything-goes Q and A dealing with the most asked questions about sexuality and relationships.

Loveology is for singles, engaged couples, and the newly married—both inside and outside the church—who want to learn what the Bible has to say about sexuality and relationships. If you want to ask the why questions and get intelligent, nuanced answers that are rooted in the Scriptures, this book is for you.

It wasn't terrible, but it wasn't life changing or profound either. It's probably best for teenagers who are just coming to understand relationships. I read it for my adult bible study group and was really hoping for nuggets of wisdom to help me grow. Unfortunately, it was just sort of a vapid relational overview of things most adults are already aware of. Of course sex is good, of course you should be attracted to your spouse, of course the ideal situation for sexual encounters are within marriage, of course it's totally ok to be single and actually enjoy your life....Ideally not wasting my time reading this book and actually doing something worthwhile like going to the gym or hanging out with friends. My advice? Save your money and go to a movie or something. It's money better spent. The one kernel of good wisdom? There's way way more to life than relationships. Which is why I normally don't waste time reading this fluff. I want my time back 😫
