Tonight we began our 3 week series on sexual purity here in the SHIFT Student Ministry concluding with the Night of Promise on May 15. Everyone was encouraged to bring their notes sheet home and discuss it with Mom & Dad. (we will have one each week) I hope our parents have an opportunity to spend some time discussing what we laid out tonight in the next few days with their son(s) and/or daughter(s). I will send along tonight's outline/notes tomorrow when I get in the office.
We also made take home sheets available for students who want to read/learn more about pursuing purity in their own lives. Because I'm always looking for good books to recommend I thought I would pass these along:
For young ladies:
"Wait for Me" by Rebecca St. James
"Technical Virgin" by Hayley DiMarco
For the guys:
"Tactics" by Fred Stoker
"Every Young Man's Battle" by Fred Stoker
On Pursuing Purity:
"Eyes Wide Open: Avoiding the Heartbreak of Emotional Promiscuity" by Brienne Murk
"Complete: a Life of Purity" by Pam Gibbs &Mike Wakefield
"Living Pure: Inside Out" by Lifeway
"Pure Joy: God's Formula for Passionate Living" by Lifeway
"Introduction to True Love Waits" a booklet by Lifeway
"When True Love Doesn't Wait" a booklet by Lifeway
On dating relationships:
"The 10 Commandments of Dating" by Ben Young & Sam Adams
any others you would recommend?
Investing in tomorrow today,
Brian H
