Passion and Purity: Learning to Bring
Your Love Life Under Christs Control
by Elisabeth Elliot
Honoring God
Elisabeth Elliots story centers around one pivotal question: Does God
want everything? Her emphatic answer--Yes--is what makes Passion and
Purity the foremost Christian book on dating ever written. Based on
stories, journal entries, and letters chronicling her own five-year courtship
with Jim Elliot, she gives frank advice, scriptural directives, and
compassionate examples of what it means to follow Christ in the midst of
heartache and impatience. The perfect antidote for those who flounder in
the thinking that the Bible doesnt say anything about dating, Elliots short
chapters are filled with nuggets of wisdom that spell out exactly the
opposite. Until the will and the affections are brought under the authority
of Christ, we have not begun to understand, let alone accept His lordship.
The Cross, as it enters the love live, will reveal the hearts truth. Whether
in a dating relationship, married, or pursuing a call to single life, readers

will find Elliots message challenging them to a true faith in a Christ who
lovingly calls us to surrender all. --Courtenay Kehn
Personal Review: Passion and Purity: Learning to Bring Your
Love Life Under Christs Control by Elisabeth Elliot
I always thought my favorite movie was the "Notebook". But this by far, has
been the BEST love story that I have ever come to know in my life. It's
REAL, it's RAW, and throughout it all, the main focus has been on the
Lord. I have learned not only that I am not alone in my struggle of being a
single and young person but also that with ABSOLUTE obedience to the
will of the Lord, He WILL bless you abundantly and more than you should
ever think and ask. The author, Mrs. Elliott, has shared her POWERFUL
testimony of her struggle to remain pure and wholesome for the Lord and
having to deal with the desires of her flesh in her love life. A completely
different and fresh way of writing, the author shares her journal entries,
hymns, verses, poems, and all the like that helped to ENCOURAGE her
through the different trials she faced. I never knew how a testimony of a
love story can be full of power and conviction to affect even my, point of
view. This book has inspired me to write through all my struggles as well
as my continuous growth in walking with the Lord. This is definitely a
MUST read book! I have already shared this with a few of my friends that
are reading it as well. Thank you Mrs. Elliott!
