Divine information for Christian dating. October 26, 1999
25 out of 26 found this review helpful
The Book of Romance allowed me to understand what GOD wants me to know about relationships besides that fornication is wrong. I've read the Song of Solomon multiple times and I never really understand what it was that GOD wanted to get from it. Tommy Nelson broke each verse down and gave me a deeper insight on love, sex and intimacy.
Must read. God cares about your romance. October 19, 1999

This book wonderfully describes how God cares about our love lives, sex lives and romance. In the beauty that love, sex and romance was intended Tommy Nelson leads a discussion on what God intended our love to be. The questions at the end of each chapter keep you from being a passive reader. They guide you to really discover what you believe and how to experience real love. My fiancée and I went through the book and tape series as we moved from friendship to courting to engagement. We have given and recommended the book to many couples and singles. We will return to the book throughout our married life.

This is a refreshing approach to relationships from a Biblical perspective. I was pleasantly suprised that there were actually applicable verses of scripture regarding dating, marriage, and intimacy. Nelson is witty and captivating. this is a book that everyone who is young, old, married, single, or thinking about marrying or dating should read. Nelson also offers tips for spicing up your marriage God- style. I only wish I could have read this sooner.
Excellent Godly Relationship Guide August 11, 2002

Tommy Nelson is a Texas pastor who has developed a series on relationships from the Song of Solomon. The Book of Romance follows very closely his video series and his conferences. It moves through all stages of a romantic relationship from dating to courting to engagement and to having a successful marriage. He addresses many issues that are seldom touched upon on Sunday mornings. The first few chapters of the book are a practical guide through the premarital stages of a relationship and how to know when to and when not to carry on those relationships. It is applicable to people of all ages from those just beginning to date and to those in a long marriage. Nelson analyzes the Song of Solomon in all its poetic and sensual detail. One gets the full sense of longing and romantic desires between Solomon and his bride. It will also leave you with a longing for your own significant other. The Book of Romance will energize any marriage and give guidance to anyone struggling with his or her marriage or in a dating relationship. I bought the book half way through one of Nelson's conferences with a desire to know more of God's perspective on love, sensuality, and sexuality. He does hold to the idea of wives submitting to and following their husbands as leaders, but any couple that applies the principles in the Book of Romance to their relationship will grow stronger, closer to each other, and closer to God. I would also recommend the video series.

This is so real, it holds none of the pretention of other books that cover the same topics. Practically aplicable in everyway - if it never gets used for marraige it is still an awesome book on how life should be lived in general. Ladies get this and read it, see who you truely are and men, you can learn alot with this beautiful study of romance.
