The title of the book is perfect. There are consequences of having sex prior to marriage. Sex is good within the context of marriage; the standard that God had in mind when He created it.
The most obvious consequence of having sex outside of marriage is teenage pregnancy. When teens think of sex, most of the time that’s their biggest concern. What many fail to realize is that there are many other consequences such as STD’s and the emotional impact it can have on them.
At first I wasn’t sure if this would be a good book or not. The author doesn’t give you a warm and fuzzy feeling. But, I digress. I believe that it has the potential to save teens from the heart breaking effects of having sex outside of God’s original intention. I read the book with the teen audience in mind. If I were a teen, some of the things may be easy to pass on. After all, God created sex so why wouldn’t he want two people married or not to have sex if they truly loved each other?
When you take medicine, there are always warning labels and side effects. This book gives you those side effects. After reading them, I’m convinced that it can stop teens (or even adults) to abstain from sex until marriage.
This book is written with teens in mind. There are black and white pictures of teens and the font is big and little for a teen appeal. It is labeled as Juvenile Nonfiction.
I recommend this book to any teen. I pray that teens will read this with an open mind. It’s easy to get emotionally attached to someone. But, waiting for marriage, will be the ultimate gift one can give to a future spouse.
