We frequently hear “you should be this; you should try this; you should have sex; you should be in a relationship.” We are being bombarded with messages and ideas that tell us that having sex outside of marriage is okay, in fact, good.

God created it to be amazing, but it's even better when it is done God's way. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe almost everyone wants to experience the best sex of his or her own life, one day. So therefore, when you are obedient and do things God's way, you should expect the best sex of your life! (Now I know you're thinking, "Easier said than done." No doubt about it! But here's the catch, it can be done! That's where I come in. I am very candid and transparent in recalling my past struggles (temptations, tests and back-sliding) and present triumphs in the area of my sexuality. It is my goal that both males and females can learn from both the good and the not so good encounters I've had.Sexual purity and sexual abstinence can be somewhat challenging issues to discuss in families, youth groups, classrooms, church and other settings. Sexploitation runs rampant in multimedia: from music videos, radio, and commercials, to everyday movies. Who can stay pure in the midst of booty-shaking, laffy-taffy, thong-songs, and lap dances? The answer: you and I. Purity is possible. Abstinence is also possible. Renewed and restored virginity is possible. This book is not for perfect people. This book is for people who are in pursuit of the truth, as it pertains to young adult sexuality. This book is for people who, regardless of their past choices, have made an informed decision to pursue God's idea of safe sex, which is 'saved' sex, in a covenant called marriage. The Best Sex of My Life is a challenge to teenagers, college students and young adult's singles to redefine sexual abstinence with finesse and flavor. Young men and young women, celebrate who you are, because you are Worth The Wait!!!

Download or read book Abstinence Cinema written by Casey Ryan Kelly and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2016-03-08 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the perspective of cultural conservatives, Hollywood movies are cesspools of vice, exposing impressionable viewers to pernicious sexually-permissive messages. Offering a groundbreaking study of Hollywood films produced since 2000, Abstinence Cinema comes to a very different conclusion, finding echoes of the evangelical movement’s abstinence-only rhetoric in everything from Easy A to Taken. Casey Ryan Kelly tracks the surprising sex-negative turn that Hollywood films have taken, associating premarital sex with shame and degradation, while romanticizing traditional nuclear families, courtship rituals, and gender roles. As he demonstrates, these movies are particularly disempowering for young women, concocting plots in which the decision to refrain from sex until marriage is the young woman’s primary source of agency and arbiter of moral worth. Locating these regressive sexual politics not only in expected sites, like the Twilight films, but surprising ones, like the raunchy comedies of Judd Apatow, Kelly makes a compelling case that Hollywood films have taken a significant step backward in recent years. Abstinence Cinema offers close readings of movies from a wide spectrum of genres, and it puts these films into conversation with rhetoric that has emerged in other arenas of American culture. Challenging assumptions that we are living in a more liberated era, the book sounds a warning bell about the powerful cultural forces that seek to demonize sexuality and curtail female sexual agency.
Download or read book Celibacy Culture and Society written by Elisa Janine Sobo and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does celibacy mean for individuals and for the people around them? What function does it serve? This is the first cross-cultural inquiry into the practice of celibacy around the world and through the ages, among groups as diverse as Kenyan villagers and U.S. prisoners, Mazatec Shamans and Buddhist nuns and monks, Shaker church members and anorexic women. The examples of celibacy described here illustrate the complex relationship between human sexuality and its particular sociocultural context. Ideas about the body, gender, family, work, religion, health, and other dimensions of life come sharply into focus as the contributors examine the many practices and institutions surrounding sexual abstinence. They show that, though celibacy is certainly sometimes a punishment or a deliberate ritual abstinence, it also serves many other social and material functions and in some cases contributes to kin-group survival and well-being. Celibacy, Culture, and Society represents a significant step toward understanding the functions and meanings of sexuality.
Download or read book Ten Keys to a Celibate Lifestyle written by Darna Bedwell and published by Tate Publishing & Enterprises. This book was released on 2015-11-03 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intimacy with God through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is the foundation for strength to do all things, even maintaining sexual purity in the midst of a demanding peer-pressured world. Few have traveled this path or charted a course that one could follow. After thirty years of celibacy, allow me to guide you —by God’s grace— into the disciplines of a celibate lifestyle, a season of abstinence, or a quest for purity at any age. Aside from long-term goals of celibacy, these ten keys can guide the average person, living an everyday life, into abstinence and sexual purity. But striving for abstinence or celibacy does not mean you lose the capacity to sin. We all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God (Rom. 3:23). But wrong thoughts will hasten temptation into your life. If you are truly serious about abstaining from sexual activity, then you must implore God to bless your endeavor. This is a prayer He will gladly assist you with because it is His will for you to abstain particularly if you are single. I recommend this book as your companion for the first five years of your quest, unless you meet your true love in a short time. This book will serve to guide and encourage you as you undertake the road less traveled to sexual purity.
