Struggling in your relationship or single life? Be set free (and win a book).

While I read today’s entry in my friend Renee Fisher’s new devotional book, I thought of readers who’ve emailed me to share struggles in relationships or with single life — people who have felt rejected, dejected, alone.

If you’re among them, I hope this excerpt from Renee’s book brings you hope:

Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering. – Mark 5:34

There was a woman in the Bible who bled for more than thirteen years. She wanted to be set free. Amidst a crowd of people, instead of asking for help, she decided to touch the hem of Jesus’ garment. When Jesus realized that healing power had gone out from him, he immediately asked who had touched him.

Want a signed copy of ‘Chastity Is For Lovers’? Get one in 2015.

IMG_2762HAPPY (almost) NEW YEAR! A year ago right now, from atop an air mattress (long story), I began to type the final few thousand words of Chastity Is For Lovers: Single, Happy, and (Still) a Virgin.

As 2014 draws to a close, I begin the next leg of that journey: to share the finished product with THE ENTIRE WORLD.

I wrote Chastity Is For Lovers because adults who practice chastity exist, who are saving sex or sex from now on for marriage, who have felt alone — I want them to know that they aren’t. I wrote it because adults exist who have been taught that chastity is abstinence (it isn’t) — I want to present real chastity to them so they can decide whether to practice it based on the truth, not on a misconception of it. 

As Ave Maria Press and I continue present the book to the public since its November 2014 release, a question has come up among my blog’s readers: “Can I get a signed copy?”

I finally have an answer: YES. Continue reading “Want a signed copy of ‘Chastity Is For Lovers’? Get one in 2015.”
