A lifeline to the peace and joy you’ve been looking for

What if prayer was more than just something you mumbled before going to sleep, or said quickly when your team takes the field or you’re about to take a test? What if prayer was a gateway to the best relationship you’ve ever had? An energizing, joy-filled, peace-giving connection to God?

This devotional provides regular readings to help connect you to God through prayer. It also contains journaling prompts and questions that will bring the concepts of Worried about Everything to life, taking you to the next step in your faith.

Designed as a companion to that life-changing book, this dynamic study guide is your road map for diving more deeply into the key concepts of Beautiful Union—whether by yourself or with a group.

Through seven fast-paced sessions, you’ll encounter thought-provoking questions, be prompted to reflect on powerful concepts, discover what God’s design for sex was always meant to reveal, and consider what it all means for living a joyful, faithful life. These sessions include features such as:

• Unpack It: questions to illuminate Beautiful Union with space to record your reflections
• Use Your Imagination: exercises to creatively help you see God’s larger invitation for human flourishing
• Reflect on It: ways to understand our lives in the expansive story of God that sex points to

With this guide, you’ll experience a bigger, more beautiful vision of God, the gospel, and the Christian vision for sex.

Beautiful isn’t likely the first word that comes to mind when we think about sex.

Our reactions are as varied as our experiences and backgrounds. Perhaps the word brings up past baggage. Perhaps it holds yearning for a dream that has never come true. Maybe we would rather not talk about it. Maybe it’s all we want to talk about. Around us, our culture is divided by this topic. On one side, “progressive” voices seek to dismantle historic Christian teachings to fit current norms. On the other side, “conservative” voices can reinforce messages of shame, judgement, and repression.

Beautiful Union offers a third way, one that is both true and beautiful. It gives us a provocative, positive look into the deepest Christian understanding of sex . . . and what sex reveals about God, our world, and even ourselves. Through biblical teaching and livable, joyful answers to our tough questions about sexuality, author and pastor Joshua Ryan Butler shows how sex illuminates the structure of creation, the nature of salvation, the abundance of God’s kingdom, and God’s heartbeat for the world.

Discover afresh the beautiful invitation of our sexuality . . . as God intended it to be.
