I’m frequently asked if I have written, or would be willing to write, a single/young adult version of Raising Purity. I’ve always agreed it would be a good idea, but it’s just seemed like I’ve had too many other projects on the burner. But earlier this year I contacted my buddy Jay Thomas–college pastor at College Church in Wheaton, Illinois–and asked him what he thought about partnering with me on the project. Happily he agreed, and even more happily, Crossway Publishers has agreed to publish the book. The working title at present is Pure Relationships: The Bible’s Perspective on Sex, Dating, and Relationships. (I’m sure the team at Crossway will come up with a better title.) The manuscript is due to Crossway November 1, and how long the process takes after that, I don’t know. I’ll update this site with release dates as information becomes available.
Those who can’t wait till next year–or perhaps can’t read (huh?)–can hear our thought on this topic by downloading the audio from a workshop I gave to single adults at my home church, Harvest Bible Chapel.
