Raising Purity - By Gerald Hiestand

"Raising Purity" By Gerald Hiestand

A Welcome From the Author

Welcome! I invite you on a journey - a journey into the heart of purity and the image of God. We will not be searching for an empty moralism - a pharisaical, legalistic list of do's and dont's. We will not be seeking after outward obedience devoid of heartfelt submission. We will not be looking to control our children for our own ends, nor even to spare them from harm. On this journey we will be searching for the heart of God, expressed fully in the person of Christ. We will be searching for a Son-exalting purity that is not defined by what it isn't but by what it is. Ultimately - though perhaps you didn't realize it - we will be searching for the gospel.


Recommendations

As a youth pastor who has been extremely discouraged with many books on this subject, I found Raising Purity to be uniquely insightful. Parents and pastors alike will fi nd Hiestand's biblical, gospel-centered approach to be a breath of fresh air.

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.
