Living in a world where mistaken and perverted ideas of what true love is abound, and where the spoiling of God-given sexuality is seen to be the norm; it is refreshing to pick up a book that deals with these issues seriously and biblically.
In 12 chapters of easy-to-read length, the author explores what the Song of Solomon says about the intimate love affair of a young couple, reflecting on the ‘nature’ of true love in its awakenings, its continuings and its failings; dealing with the issues of intimate sexuality in love sensitively and honestly, while continually drawing our attention to the covenant relationship of love on both the vertical and horizontal levels.
