Sex and the City of God

A Memoir of Love and Longing

About this book

When Carolyn Weber moved to Oxford University to study, she didn't expect to find God there. But she did. As she grappled with her newest and most important relationship, she also found that there was another invitation: to thinkbigger about love.

In these pages we follow the journey Weber began in her first memoir, Surprised by Oxford, from her relationship with her sometimes-absent father to the ups and downs of love, marriage, and parenthood.

Now aliterature professor, Weber reflects on her relationship with a sometimes-absent father and how that has shaped her. Through her personal story, as well as spiritual, theological, and literary reflection, Sex and the City of God explores what life looks like when we choose to love God first.
