First of, on this page, there is no discussion of sex outside of marriage. Sex outside of marriage, according to the Bible is, sinful, dirty, shameful, dangerous to our soul, spirit and body as it degrades the honorable nature of a human being who is created by the image and likeness of a holy God. So, any discussion of sex on this page is in the context of marriage between one man and one woman. That being said, let me jump into the most radical message in the area of one of the most commonly seen sexual misunderstandings between a husband and a wife.

Advice to a Single Girl
It is wonderful to see couples tying the knot to be one, never to be two.
As a married person and a teacher in the area of sexual purity, I can’t tell you how I rejoice whenever I see a wedding.
Yes, the Bible says that marriage protects us from being soaked in sexual immorality (1 Corinthians 7). What a joy then to see someone escaping such a “ruthless tyrant” as sexual immorality! Continue reading Advice to a Single Girl
A Wife’s Prayer To Her Husband
Thank You, LORD, for giving me another day to come to You in prayer. May Your Name be blessed forever!
I have received many great and perfect gifts from You, LORD.
Above all the gifts, LORD, You gave me Your Son, Jesus Christ, to die for me on the Cross so I might live for You. Jesus, You became sin for me so I might be God’s righteousness. Thank You, Lord Jesus! Continue reading A Wife’s Prayer To Her Husband
The Only School of Discipline
They said that life is a journey. They also said that “marriage is a lifetime school of discipline” where you will be done with all the required “courses” only when you take your last breath. Hmm! Different school of discipline, isn’t it?
Called Marriage!
We have a so distorted, perverted, crooked and twisted notion of love and marriage that stories such as this one sounds like a fairy tale to many of us.
As usual, one of those faithful supporters of Appeal for Purity Ministry sent us this video. Thank you, my friend!

A Message to All Husbands
When God commands husbands to “love” their wives as Jesus loved the church, He is not joking. He is seriously showing to husbands the shortest way (not necessarily the easy way) they can make their own lives fun and enjoyable.
A Message to all Wives
Pray God speaks to your heart.

You Have A Good Marriage If – – –
Many marriage experts agree that no one can have a perfect marriage.
Duh! We all are imperfect people and when two of us come together, we can’t create a perfect life.
Okay, that is like one of those “no brainer” facts. But do you know that many marriage experts (means, people who spend most of their days studying about marriage) agree that there are only two kinds of marriages: Good or bad? Yeah, it is very true.
And they said, you have a good marriage if: Continue reading You Have A Good Marriage If – – –
My Wish to Marry A Christian Man
A4P Guest: “I am a 40 year old woman. I grew up in a well-educated family, have a BA, on the looks department, I am okay, I have a pretty face, bit short, great confidence, beautiful heart,( as told by people). I am not a born-again Christian, but I am faithful, love to read the Bible, and Christian articles, very curious for knowledge, I love to read a variety of books, from children’s stories to politics. I love to dance, I don’t drink. I have had a range of boyfriends, mostly kind and good guys never had a full sexual relationship with anyone, due to my views, that sexual relationships are best only in marriage, as I believe God’s wish is. Right now, I don’t have any boyfriend, but these days I am facing a big problem, my family is pressuring me either to get married or have a baby out of wedlock (I am the eldest child, out of four siblings). I do understand their concern, and wish/dream to become grandparents, uncles, aunties, but it is also against my wish and belief to have a child out of wedlock. The option of being married is out of the picture right now. So what do I do? I know my parents are not getting any younger, nor am I for that matter. My wish to marry a humble Christian man, be a faithful wife, build a Christian family is becoming almost a mirage. I have prayed hard for the right partner, but my Boaz is nowhere to be found. I am stuck between fulfilling my and my family’s wishes the wrong way, or spend the rest of my life, alone, childless, and killing everyone’s dream and wishes, what do I do? You can share it on your Facebook page, some women might have the same problem so we can learn from each other, but keep my identity a secret.”
A4P: I believe you are at a tough place in life. Sure you are a bit older. I get it, you are 40 but I’m not sure why you said “The option of being married is out of the picture right now.”
