 A
Higher Pleasure is within Reach (pdf)
The Purity Principle includes practical guidelines to
protect purity, for singles, for married couples, and for
parents who wish to train their children in purity. These
include controlling the television and internet, and offering
alternatives for how to spend our time. It also includes
confession, repentance and developing biblical accountability
that doesn't just admit sin, but prevents it.
The Purity Principle may be the shortest book you will
ever read on the subject of purity. Yet in 93 pages, it packs
a very powerful message. After reading the first few
pages—pages filled with heart-breaking stories of those who
have chosen impurity and the devastating consequences of their
actions—I began to understand how high the stakes are when we
play games with our purity.
Because of how I've been raised, I have always believed that
impurity is wrong. But one of Mr. Alcorn's points took me by
surprise. Impurity is not just wrong. It's stupid. Why? Well,
you will just have to read the book. It makes a convincing
case for the pros of purity and the cons of impurity that
never leaves you bored. |

One of the saddest
things to me is the fact that we have become so morally soft
as a Christian culture. And one of my favorite things about
this book is that it challenges us to take the high road in
remaining pure and reaping the benefits that come from it.
This book has certainly challenged my commitment to God and to
myself to stay sexually and emotionally pure for the one
special person that God has in mind for me. And I hope it will
challenge you too. I would recommend this book for all young
adults and teens.
- book review by Megan O'Rourke
Every young person needs to read this book . . . and every
adult, for that matter. There are few issues that cause such
ruin and devastation. For the sake of our families and loved
ones, spread the word about this outstanding little book from
Randy Alcorn.
- book review by The Discerning Reader
I just finished reading this powerful book. I have read MANY
books on the topic of sexual struggles and I must say this one
dealt most succinctly and directly with the topic. It was
to-the-point, in-your-face, and a refreshing look at some
basic truths we all need to be reminded. I highly recommend
this short, power-packed book!

I wanted to let you know how much I have been blessed by your book The Purity Principle. As a youth leader of a thriving church in the UK, I have been challenged to cover this difficult subject with our teenagers for the first time. God has directed your book into my path and it has provided so much inspiration to us that we have ordered a copy to give to every teenager in our church youth group. - D. H. |
