Purity: The New Moral Revolution

This book is so good, I know that it was written under the influence of the Holy Spirit because there is no condemnation in it, no shame, only hope. He gives a people a good foundation of why God sees immorality as wrong and keep yourself out of that pit. I bought it because this is an area where I have fallen, and I wanted my kids to have a game plan to not fall into the same pit. I was just told not to. I wasn't told why not to or even if you find yourself in this situation this is how to get out. Thank you God for allowing Kris to write this and answer some hard hitting question with hard hitting answers. Praise God!!

This book is an absolute must-read for all. As a recent college graduate who has encountered the difficulty of staying pure in high school/college, I am HIGHLY recommending this book for ALL!!!! I so wish I had this book when I was younger and that is why I am SO promoting it. It's such a different approach to purity - No longer are we fighting to maintain purity because we want to avoid pain ... but NOW, we are remaining PURE because of the AMAZING reward that comes!! As a psychology major, this is totally true - positive reinforcement, not negative, is much more effective. Kris is an amazing writer and portrays these thoughts with such grace. This a MUST-BUY!!!!! If you're a youth pastor: Get your students reading it! If you're a parent: Read it with your kids. Whatever the case: Read it, give it away, get the book circulating...it's going to start a REVOLUTION! I could not recommend it more!

Kris Vallotton opens his book "Purity" with an allegorical story "The Parable of the Ring" which depicts the ring as the symbol of your virginity. The book was written with the purpose of providing a catalyst for a sexual reformation. It is Vallotton's prayer the book will "rock the planet and rewrite the sexual paradigms of our time!" Kris draws on illustrations and lessons from life to provide practical tips on establishing vision, virtue, values and standards while setting boundaries for maintaining purity. He coaches young people to develop a plan for purity, for guarding the thought life by making a covenant with your eyes not to compromise your heart. He discusses practical matters; the importance of accountability and the danger of deception. He offers guidelines for date and courting and establishes standards for appropriate behavior. Vallotton goes on to describe marriage as a covenant relationship which includes Holy love and Holy affection. A natural story teller, Kris uses heartwarming and heartbreaking stories to illustrate the reward of victory, the result of defeat, and the promise of restoration, a second chance and forgiveness. The final story called "Grace" is a perfect example of God's grace in the lives of those looking to Him for strength. This is a book for a new generation on the brink of becoming participants of a sexual paradigm shift for sexual purity and for anyone caught up in guilt seeking forgiveness and victory by accepting God's forgiveness and grace. "Purity" is a bold statement of a new catalyst for a sexual reformation.

Kris Vallotton has done it again. He has given us a book that is revolutionizing the way we think. This book is a must read for every family. We truly can start a new moral revolution by knowing what God has called us to, and the ability God has given us to influence the culture we live in with the culture of the kingdom.

Kris has done it again! This straightforward book on sexuality cuts right through our culture's hormone-driven, standard-less approach to the subject. It reads like a frank father & child chat; full of warmth and wisdom. Kris' honesty is refreshing. Avoiding the extremes of lawlessness and legalism, he gets to the roots of our sexual thoughts and behavior. In a shame-free atmosphere, Kris honors the beauty of physical intimacy within the covenant of marriage. He also offers redemptive hope to those who have fallen into sexual sin. This is a "must read" for every parent and leader. It is also vital insight for every child and young adult. Kris is a prophetic general, rallying an army to start a purity revolution!
