Synopsis

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.

From AudioFile:

ÒPurity is always smart; impurity is always stupid.Ó Alcorn examines this principle, an issue that is currently at the forefront of the Christian church. He states the principle early and reinforces it with scripture, anecdotes, and lessons learned during his years of being a pastor and a leader in aiding those in need at all levels of society. At times, Alcorn recounts his own struggles to attain purity, as well. Lloyd James delivers the message effortlessly, bringing out the nuances of what could be a flat text. His conversational tone warms the ear to the bookÕs mandate. JamesÕs presentation reinforces the simple core value developed by the author.
