For many Christians, Song of Solomon can feel confusing, uncomfortable, or easy to avoid altogether. It’s suuuper intimate poetry filled with longing, desire, beauty, and love. At first glance, it can maybe even seem out of place in the Bible. But what if these ancient poems have more to teach us than we realize?

Song of Solomon invites us to slow down and reflect on the power of love, the beauty and vulnerability of intimacy, and the God who pursues his people with passion and faithfulness. Rather than giving simple answers or relationship formulas, this book invites us into honesty, wonder, and deeper reflection about both human love and the love of God.

That’s why we created this reading companion, Song of Solomon: Love, Longing, and the God Who Draws Near. 

This guide will:

• Help you navigate one of the Bible’s most beautiful and misunderstood books
• Explore what Song of Solomon teaches about love, desire, relationships, and wisdom
• Invite you to reflect on God’s faithful and pursuing love for his people, regardless of your relationship status
