Intimacy with God through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is the foundation for strength to do all things, even maintaining sexual purity in the midst of a demanding peer-pressured world. Few have traveled this path or charted a course that one could follow. After thirty years of celibacy, allow me to guide you --by God's grace-- into the disciplines of a celibate lifestyle, a season of abstinence, or a quest for purity at any age. Aside from long-term goals of celibacy, these ten keys can guide the average person, living an everyday life, into abstinence and sexual purity. But striving for abstinence or celibacy does not mean you lose the capacity to sin. We all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God (Rom. 3:23). But wrong thoughts will hasten temptation into your life. If you are truly serious about abstaining from sexual activity, then you must implore God to bless your endeavor. This is a prayer He will gladly assist you with because it is His will for you to abstain particularly if you are single. I recommend this book as your companion for the first five years of your quest, unless you meet your true love in a short time. This book will serve to guide and encourage you as you undertake the road less traveled to sexual purity.
