ABSTINENCE . . . Seriously?: Why Should I Wait for Marriage?: A Study for Today's Youth

As a parent, leader, or teacher, do you ever struggle with how to teach your child, students, or those you mentor about sexuality? ABSTINENCE…SERIOUSLY? provides material and activities to use when you are ready to begin. The material has been gathered by Kathy Nowell as she taught youth, counseled youth, singles and parents and led retreats on the subject of sexuality for most of her adult life. Some chapters may be uncomfortable for you, but remember—the world will teach what you do not—and that information is often false. Talking to your children about sexuality is not easy, but is essential. There are many voices bombarding them today trying to influence their choices away from God’s desires for them. Parents need to know what to say and how to say it in this important area. In this book, Kathy Nowell provides answers with practical helps. It is a must read for any parent that wants to have “the talk” with their child from God’s perspective. —Harvey G. Ellis, Broadmoor Baptist Church
