Review: Necessary Reading For Those With a Heartbeat - Randy Alcorn has written a few great booklets that are around 100 pages long. The Purity Principle is one of them. The Purity Principle is quite simple: "Purity is always smart, impurity is always stupid". If we know what is best for us then we will passionately pursue purity. The first part of this book attempts to prove the purity principle. The second part of the book gets practical and puts into place wise strategies for pursuing purity. What I Liked: This book is well written, it is short, it is to the point, it is deeply biblical, and greatly convicting. Even if you think you are passionately pursuing purity this book will challenge you to go a step further. Alcorn speaks boldly and wisely throughout. The strategies in this book are not legalistic tips or merely unhelpful theories, they are real and they are practical. But there is only one caveat... What I Disliked: I wish Alcorn would have inserted a chapter about the resurrection power of Jesus in our lives. Because of what Christ has done we have the power within us to conquer this battle. I know that Alcorn would agree with that, I just wish he would have laid a foundation towards the beginning. He starts towards that when he says, "when my thirst for joy is satisfied by Christ, sin becomes unattractive". But, I wish he would have taken it a step further and dedicated a chapter to encouraging those that feel ridiculously defeated by this particular sin. Again, he says these things in a few places (see page 60)--I just think the reader would be better served having a deliberate chapter. Nonetheless... Should You Buy It? Absolutely. If you have a heartbeat, you are a guy, you are a girl, you know a guy, you know a girl, then you need to buy this book and read it. There is a helpful chapter for singles. There is a helpful chapter for parents.
Review: Excellent book, not only about purity, but to consider all your thoughts. Choose to think wisely. - Very good book about purity. Doesn't go into lurid details like "Every man's battle" or other books. Makes you consider your whole thought life... bought this for our son who was having issues with cell phone. I think everyone should read this book, ages 8 and up. Where do your thoughts take you? Not just about purity, but whole, true godliness in all your thoughts. What is truth? Only God and His Word is true! Jesus died for our sins, so we can CHOOSE and make CHOICES that will not destroy us or others around us.

Very good book about purity. Doesn't go into lurid details like "Every man's battle" or other books.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A sharp tool for anyone serious about putting sexual immorality to death.
*by C***A on September 7, 2015*

This little treasure will forever be a great tool in my tool belt as a counselor. I have counseled a couple young men through the problem with purity and lust. Alcorn hits the heart and uses stories and analogies that will linger in your head and shake your heart. Both young men that I have given this to have loved it. One of my counselee's loved it so much he would tell me that he would approach the book with the thought, "What do you have to teach me today Randy?" This book ministered to me as a teenager in high school that struggled with lust and porn. It was a life changing and life shaping book then and it has stood the test of time now. A must have for anyone who is serious about putting lust, porn, and immorality to death. It's short and could even be finished in one sitting.
