Track: Dating, Marriage & Sex, A Student's Guide to Dating, Marriage & Sex

David Ayers has written this helpful little book to help you think through these questions and understand why this is such an important part of the Christian life. Chastity is a word that isn’t used much these days, but it means exercising sexual self–control in line with the moral teachings of the Bible. It means honoring God, respecting others, and embracing the liberating beauty of God’s order. But how do we do that in today’s recreational dating culture? And how do we think about dating and, ultimately, marriage? Practical and relatable, Ayers doesn’t shy away from addressing the real questions, situations and decisions young people are likely to have to navigate. With sensitivity, he shows how biblical truth can resonate with real life.

‘In a culture that shrinks down sex to empty hook–ups, pixilated courtships, broken promises and soul–less encounters, David Ayers reminds us that Scripture calls us to a bigger, more beautiful, more passionate love story. … a real eye–opener for any young person who wants to take seriously their heart, their mind and their body.’ Duffy Robbins, Professor of Christian Ministry, Grove City College, Pennsylvania
