Christopher Kabwe Mukuka

What does sexuality have to do with covenant, spirituality, character, and the human mind?The Covenant Within examines sexuality through the biblical themes of creation, covenant, holiness, brokenness, grace, and restoration. Beginning with God's design in Eden, Christopher Kabwe Mukuka explores how Scripture presents sexual intimacy as more than a physical act. It affects identity, conscience, relationships, worship, trust, and spiritual formation.
The book considers sexual practices in ancient Israel, the consequences of breaking covenant, Paul's teaching on sexual morality, the formation of desire, prophetic imagery, and Jesus' approach to holiness without humiliation. It also addresses contemporary concerns such as sex before marriage, adultery, pornography, compulsive behaviour, polygamy, marital faithfulness, repentance, and recovery after sexual sin.
Drawing on biblical teaching, Seventh-day Adventist scholarship, selected writings of Ellen G. White, pastoral experience, and carefully qualified psychological insights, the author distinguishes scriptural truth from fear-based claims about sexual contamination and mystical energy transfer. Rather than reducing Christian sexuality to shame or prohibition, The Covenant Within presents a constructive vision of covenant faithfulness.
It explains why sexual choices have spiritual, emotional, relational, and social consequences while affirming that failure does not have to become a permanent identity. Written for Christian adults, couples, pastors, ministry leaders, students, churches, and discussion groups, this book combines theological reflection with study questions, practical applications, biblical passages, and a seven-step covenant-renewal practice.
It invites readers to pursue truth, responsibility, healing, self-control, faithful love, and a renewed life through the grace of God
