Few matters produce more public interest and public anxiety than sex and religion. Much of the political contention and division in societies across the world centres on sexual topics, and one-third of the global population is Christian in background or outlook.

This book seeks to calm fears and encourage understanding through telling a three-thousand-year-long tale of Christians encountering sex, gender and the family, with noises off from their sacred texts.

Their story as politicians and friends began the moment they met and is a model for others seeking true reconciliation.

Thin Christianity, as Rauch calls the mainline church, has been unable to inspire and retain believers.
