Book Description
Moral purity does not happen by accident--not in today's world. Some Christians have even given up on purity, accepting the world's suggestion that it is impossible to maintain a pure heart, mind, and body. But God's Word still commands purity. And it gives you the tools you need to protect it. In these pages, discover four fences you must build to maintain purity--and learn practical ways to keep these fences in good repair.

Book Description
For thirty years Randy Alcorn has been encouraging people-young and old-to pursue the rewards of sexual purity. Too often we settle for a compromised Christianity that's just a baptized version of the world's sad existence, rather than the abundant life to which God calls us. This book deals with - raising children to embrace sexual purity - providing an example of purity in the home - protecting purity in dating (at any age) - and maintaining purity in marriage. Biblical, practical, and concise, The Purity Principle is a one-stop handbook for individuals, families and churches. Some people have given up on purity. Some have never tried. Bestselling author Randy Alcorn shows us why, in this culture of impurity, the stakes are so high—and what we can do to experience the freedom of purity. Impurity will always destroy us; purity always leads to higher pleasures! Choose wisely. Let the insights of this amazing book—written for old and young, married and single—help you gain your footing on the path to truly lasting joy.

Book Description
A list of rules. This is how most young people view purity. But Rachel Welborn, in The Gift of Purity, seeks to open our eyes to the rest of the story. Purity is wise. Purity is what's best for us over time. Purity is an appropriate response to God's amazing love. But purity is also difficult, often ridiculed, and completely outside of today's norm. Besides filling in the gaps on why purity is the right choice, The Gift of Purity provides encouragement for teenage to young adult women who are trying to walk this narrow, challenging path. "It's not being different just for the sake of being different; it's being different in trust and obedience to God's loving guidance," Rachel explains. And the difference is a life of pure living. That is God's plan for each of us. How will you respond?

Book Description
It took Brian, my husband, and me some time to grasp the idea of purity while we were dating. After reading our story, you’ll see that making the commitment to purity was just the beginning. We had tasted the forbidden fruit for a number of years. Then I got to know Jesus in a new and powerful way as I recovered from an eating disorder. Brian eventually followed, and we knew things had to change. We had the difficult task of trying to figure out how to have a Christian dating relationship, living in the Garden of Eden, so to speak, right next to the tree but resisting the habit and compulsion of reaching for that fruit. How close to the forbidden tree can you get? Can you actually hold the apple in your hand but not taste it? There is no hard-and-fast rule I can give you for where to draw the line. However, I will share with you some lessons that I learned to show you how to build your relationship together through Christian dating. I will describe some strategies to keep the pilot light of your passion lit but under God’s gentle control. Then, how does it work to take two imperfect people, joined under God to become one in a loving marriage?
