The cover of Raising Purity by Gerald Hiestand

In a society that has long ago abandoned any meaningful commitment to chastity and virtue, raising pure children can be a daunting task. Sadly, for many Christian parents, absolutes in the realm of sexuality have remained entirely too elusive. What exactly is purity? Can it be objectively defined beyond the obvious biblical command regarding premarital sex? Our failure to provide adequate answers to these questions has often left our children in a state of moral uncertainty.

The time has come for a clear, biblical and measurable standard of sexual purity. In Raising Purity, Gerald Hiestand sets forth this standard providing an objective definition to the subjective concept of purity. Parents will be challenged to rethink their understanding of human sexuality and learn to nurture the image of God in the hearts of their children.
