Combining scientific understanding and Christian insight, this is a comprehensive and magisterial discussion of the theology of sexual ethics, ranging from sexual relationships and gender equality to birth control and artificial insemination.


Eros and Agape, divorce and remarriage, birth control and abortion, homosexuality, artificial insemination. These are some of the issues that Thielicke confronts in this wide-ranging study of human sexuality. His approach is scholarly and thorough, and the questions are considered within the broad context of Christian anthropology. His combination of scientific knowledge and Christian insight makes this an important contribution to some of the most hotly debated issues of today. All those who are honestly searching for new insights that are consistent with modern knowledge as well as with Biblical values will welcome it as a beacon of light on the subject.
