Passion and purity : learning to bring your love life under Christ's control (copy 2) / by Elisabeth Elliot ; foreword by Joshua Harris. - 2nd edition. - 191 pages ; 22 cm

Includes bibliographical references (pages 189-191).

In Passion and Purity, Elisabeth Elliot emphasizes the need to commit daily to Christ all matters of the heart and to wait upon Him. She teaches this often painful yet rewarding discipline by candidly tracing her love story with Jim Elliot, as evidence that she has been there.
Through letters, diary entries, and memories, she shares the temptations, difficulties, victories, and sacrifices of two young people whose commitment to Christ took priority over their love for each other. Passion and Purity gives honest direction in such areas as: loving passionately while remaining sexually pure; whether or not to marry, and who is the right one; the man's and woman's role in relationships; putting God's desires ahead of personal desires; how far is too far, physically.
