The Bible, Sexuality, and Culture

“The Bible, Sexuality, and Culture, written by Brian Peterson, is a book worth reading. Why? Peterson addresses moral issues that the church will have to answer. In his book, Peterson gives a clear and solid explanation of the issues, identifies the historical teaching of the church and applies it to the issues, and supports his explanation with a wealth of resources that provide readers with additional sources.”


—Donald G. Bennett, USA coordinator, Division of Education, Church of God





“Brian Peterson’s book is like ‘cold water to a thirsty soul.’ Grounded in accurate hermeneutics and orthodox theology, the book covers relevant topics such as marriage, sexuality, and morality. Peterson’s knowledge of history combined with his insights into the present cultural decline make this book a must for anyone who wants to understand how far down the proverbial slope we have come. Thankfully, Peterson invites us to return to the ways of God, the truth of Scripture, and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit who will lead us to ‘model what true and authentic sexuality looks like.’”


—Tiberius Rata, professor and associate dean, Grace College and Theological Seminary





“The radical reimaging of the biblical narrative regarding sex, marriage, family, and culture has moved our nation to the precipice of an ethical collapse. Although Christian tradition has for centuries held strong dogma in these areas, our generation is witnessing a profound weakening of them and there has been very little serious academic engagement regarding the matter. Thankfully, Dr. Brian Neil Peterson has written an incredible scholarly and biblically sound book, which I highly recommend for any pastor, church leader, parent, or grandparent who wishes to help this generation navigate between biblical truth and cultural pressures.”


—Lamar Vest, former chairman, National Association of Evangelicals





“With today’s all-out attack on biblical norms for marriage, sexuality, and family, Peterson's book demonstrates that God's design for marriage, family, and sexuality is best. It must be defended and celebrated. This study, grounded in the Word and sound theology, will help you take a stand.”
