Sex, Lies, and Religion by Randy Elrod
Written by Fred McKinnon on February 8, 2010 – 5:10 PM -
After hearing about the much-anticipated, controversial book for nearly a full year, Randy Elrod has officially released his book, “Sex, Lies, and Religion”.
I’ve had the pleasure of spending some quality time with Randy and his wife, Chris. He’s one of those guys that you are immediately captivated by. Chris, his lovely wife and life partner is equally amazing and when you hang around them you get the idea that this is how God intended marriage to be.
I got my pre-release copy of this book a couple of weeks ago and was drawn into the story from the very beginning. The opening scene hits home for me because it is literally taking place a stone’s throw from my home and I couldn’t help but smile, recalling the “personal connection” I had to this book and it’s author.
I won’t go into a lot of details about the book – you can get that information when you buy it and read it for yourself. Known for beautiful works of watercolor art, many of which are nudes, I began to get a better understanding of Randy’s heart for true art, the physical body, and expression.
What is the difference between nude art and pornography? This book addresses that topic and many, many others.
“Sex, Lies, and Religion” will be a challenging read, especially for those who are overly religious. Randy will tackle some issues of sexuality, expression, and intimacy that can challenge your thinking. He certainly challenged mine. I honestly can’t say that I’d endorse or agree with every statement in the book.
On the whole, the book is a welcome challenge and I am already inspired by reading it. Personally, with four young children in our home and decades of religious influences affecting my paradigms and ways of thinking, I NEEDED TO READ THIS BOOK.
In closing, I think this book can certainly bring about freedom to so many people who could be in bondage to sexual sins, lusts, or intimacy issues. Most importantly, the purpose is not just to “improve your sex life” … it’s to bring a greater awareness of our intimacy with Christ.
