More About This Book

Overview

Reviewers continue to rave about And the Bride Wore White: Seven Secrets To Purity. But the greatest proof of it's effect is in the lives of tens of thousands of young women who've embraced the book's proven "How-to-wait" skills. Each chapter of And the Bride Wore White begins with a narrative of Dannah Gresh's young love life, taken from her own teenage journals. She transparently shares her struggles and successes, her moments of pain followed by healing and the moments of triumph. This story-line grips the young reader while they learn statistically proven risk-reduction factors. The end result is usable "how-to-say-no" skills that can reduce the risk of a young woman's heart being broken by sexual sin. In this update, Dannah and her friends share open letters of encouragement to young women, one for those who chose life and another to those who chose abortion, a letter to teen girls addicted to pornography and another to girls who have experienced sexual abuse, and many more specific to a young woman's unique circumstances. Over 250,000 copies sold!

DANNAH GRESH is a bestselling author and co-founder of Pure Freedom. She has sold over 750,000 copies of her books, including And the Bride Wore White , What Are You Waiting For: The One Thing No One Ever Tells You About Sex, and Lies Young Women Believe (co-authored with Nancy Leigh DeMoss), in addition to the Secret Keeper series and Pursuing the Pearl.

Read an Excerpt

God pushed me into doing my very first purity retreat when a conflict arose in my church over whether or not a junior in high school should attend a women's retreat dealing with sexual healing. Since I was a corporate trainer, the women of the church asked me to put together a purity retreat specifically for the junior and senior girls. I have to admit, my pride pleaded with the Lord for another assignment, but eventually gave in. I did not share any of myself on that first retreat, but I saw women who did, and I saw how incredible the response was to how "real" they were. I cautiously walked into the arena of exposing myself and found that junior, senior and college-aged girls extremely challenged by my story, much to my humility. And so, I offer you my story in these pages. It has been rewritten through meticulous retrieval of my memory through sixteen years of diaries and journals. Not one detail written about within these pages was made up. They were all carefully recorded within my journals. God must have known they would be used for this book.

    And The Bride Wore White.

    This is a great book for all women young or old. I'm almost fifteen years old and I found this book very motivating, helpful, and inspiring. Dannah Gresh is one of those writers that just gets it. She knows how to put it down on paper and make it come across just right. It had a lot of scripture which is so helpful to turn to when you finish the book. I loved how Dannah put her own personal story in the book. Laid it all out so we could learn from some mistakes she made in her life. I hope and pray to stay pure until marriage, and Dannah's book is next to the best for reading on purity. I loved it and I hope you do too.
