In addition to his unwavering leadership as pastor of Fellowship Church, Ed Young is also a celebrated author. While his television broadcast is a great way to spread messages quickly, Ed Young believes reading is a superior communication tool. Books allow their authors to assemble their thoughts more carefully. They also allow readers to gain a fuller, more comprehensive understanding of the subject matter. Although Ed Young is the author of 13 different books, three of his most notable are Sexperiment, Beauty-Full, and Kid CEO.
Take a look at what each of these books is all about:
1. Ed Young’s Sexperiment
Pastor Ed Young caught a lot of criticism for his views on sex and marriage. Contrary to the beliefs of many established Christian Churches, Ed Young believes that sex is more than a reproductive act. In fact, the pastor maintains that Sex is a God-given gift that couples should engage in regularly.
In his book Sexperiment, Pastor Ed Young challenges married couples to have sex daily for one week straight. The book discusses the benefits of regular sex between married couples. Included among these discussions are the ways in which sex brings couples closer together and closer to God.
2. Ed Young Promotes Beauty-Full Women
It’s no secret that society places unfair pressure on women to look a certain way. Everywhere you go, you’re likely to see advertisements displaying the ‘perfect model’ of womanhood. But a majority of the time, this standard model is unattainable and unrealistic, not to mention unhealthy. When young women fail to live up to this standard, it ultimately has a negative impact on their self-esteem.
In his book Beauty-Full, Ed Young argues that we must teach adolescent women that true beauty doesn’t concern appearance. In doing so, the pastor contends that we can restore the self-esteem and confidence of young girls. As a father of daughters, tackling this issue is Ed Young’s personal mission.
3. Ed Young’s Kid CEO
Today’s modern family has a real issue with control. More often than not, kids seem to hijack the family unit and hold it hostage. Unfortunately, the audacity of these hostile children is directly linked to a lack of parental discipline.
In Kid CEO, Ed Young contends that parents should assert their role as household leaders and stand their ground. The book also argues that married couples should not let children interfere with their sexual intimacy. Sex helps bring couples closer together, and when couples combine their efforts, their children face a formidable opponent.
