The Handbook of Sexual Purity

New book outlines everything a young woman needs to know in staying sexually pure for God and herself

[USPRwire, Mon May 05 2008] In a time where women are assaulted visually and physically with sexual innuendo and images and are pressured to “put out,” what kind of role could remaining sexually pure possibly have?

A major one, it turns out.

In their book, Sexual Purity and the Young Woman, mother & daughter Grace LaJoy Henderson and Arica Henderson give hope to young women everywhere, encouraging them to offer their body and everything about their sexuality to God so they do not have to hurt as a result of common sexual mistakes that young women make.

Citing verse from the Scriptures, the Hendersons use parable to make their point, drawing on their own experiences as young women navigating the slippery slope of young adult sexuality.

Each chapter explores a different aspect of remaining sexually pure and includes questions for discussion about each topic.

Praise for Sexual Purity and the Young Woman

“... an incredible resource for every female, pre-teenager to adulthood... It is an easy read with short well-written chapters. The bible based discussion questions promote personal reflection as well as small group interaction for home, school, churches, and camps. This book provides wisdom and guidance for young ladies passionate about purity.”--LeAndra “Mrs. Angie” Daniels, sexual
purity educator
