Overview
Christians are crashing and burning on the runways of life. Through the TV, Internet, cell phones, newspapers, books, and magazines we are bombarded by the world's temptations and attractions. The response of choosing isolation from the world doesn't work: we fail to reach the people God has called us to reach, and we find that the problem comes with us in the sinful desires of our hearts. The opposite extreme, becoming like the world, turns Christians into people who are irrelevant. So how can we build pure lives in this generation? The Word of God has the answers. This workbook is designed to be used by small groups, counselors, and individuals to help us get into God's Word to find His help to be pure people in a world overcome with sensuality in all its forms.

Reviews
Over an eight-week period of manageable daily lessons, Dave systematically dismantles the heart idols that surround the sins of impurity, and gradually builds a new and powerful sense of the greatness and goodness of God. The mind is nurtured with daily readings, songs, meditations, and questions, all intended to renew the heart in the process. Dr. David Murray, Professor at Puritan Reformed Seminary and Pastor of Grand Rapids Free Reformed Church Dave Coats's Soul Purity is a rich, robust, relational resource. Other materials on this vital topic often move toward extremes: they are either too abstract or they are so practical that they lack a theological foundation. This work, on the other hand, beautifully balances theological depth with practical implementation. Coats's focus on the heart and conscience reminds me of the great Puritan soul physicians who blended the holiness of God and the horrors of sin with the forgiveness of Christ and the wonders of grace. I highly recommend this Christ-focused, gospel-centered workbook. Bob Kellemen, Ph.D., Chair of the Biblical Counseling and Discipleship Department, Crossroads Bible College
