"Passion and Purity"
By: Elisabeth Elliot
A Review By: Christie S.
Elizabeth
Elliot first published "Passion and Purity" in 1984 and it is just as
relevant now as it was back in the 1980's. This is a book with a strong
message that has withstood the test of many decades despite opposition
from the world. Passion and Purity is radically different from the
world's vision for "relationships". The subtitle of this book is:
"Learning to bring your love life under Christ's control", a formula so
sadly foreign to the world today. So often dating, courtship,
relationships, (or whatever you would like to call them) are all about
what "feels good" or what "you decide is right" Elizabeth Elliot
challenges young and old alike to "stay pure in your relationships",
"wait on God's timing", and to "surrender your love life under Christ's
control." This book is a convicting, challenging, courageous read that I
would highly recommend. Enjoy!
