Keeping You & Your Kids Sexually Pure
Kids need clear sexual boundaries. The media, the classroom, and other voices send conflicting messages to our teenagers. Society teaches youth how to say no to drugs and alcohol, but not to sex. Parents, pastors, teachers, and youth workers must speak the same message: sexual activity outside of marriage is unacceptable.
Research demonstrates that teaching abstinence works! In survey after survey students say that abstinence is what they want to learn. Self-control, self-respect, delayed gratification, planning for the future, and building healthy friendships are values that are essential for every aspect of successful living—not just in regard to our sexuality.
Keeping Your Kids Sexually Pure lays a firm foundation for helping youth stay sexually pure in a culture that often sends mixed signals about sexual behavior. Author La Verne Tolbert brings a down-to-earth approach to teaching teens the importance of sexual purity. Using stories from everyday life, research examples, and Bible-based principles, she helps adults understand the why of the abstinence message and how to communicate the message effectively to youth at home, how to monitor the message at school, and how to reinforce the message in church and community.
