Sex and The City of God

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 think bigger about love.

Follow Weber through her courtship and into marriage and parenthood. Now a literature 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.

Carolyn Weber holds her MPhil and DPhil from Oxford University, England. She is an award-winning author, popular professor, and international speaker appearing at campuses worldwide, from the Billy Graham Training Center at The Cove to 100 Huntley Street.

Weber has served as faculty at Oxford University, Seattle University, University of San Francisco, and Westmont College, and was the first female dean of St. Peter's College, Oxford. She currently teaches at Heritage College & Seminary and Brescia University College in Canada. The Grace Irwin Award, which is the largest award for Christian writing in Canada, was awarded to her memoir, Surprised by Oxford, and her book Holy Is the Day won in the best spiritual memoir category.
