Customer Reviews

Excellent book with pictures for teens to learn godly behavior.

First saw this book at a Family Life Weekend to Remember for couples (a highly recommended event). The book is part of a 4 part series, but if your kids are teens already, like ours, then it's good to just be able to buy the book that is for them.

Truth about Sex

My husband and I spent a year preparing for the coming "talk" with our oldest when I came across this series. There is 4 books in all. We have used books 1-3 and have been extremely pleased with how the content and each topic was handled. At first I was worried that some levels where a little more than I was ready for my kids to know but we went ahead and covered each topic in the book. My kids LOVED them and appreciated having all their questions answered so throughoughly and lovingly. The authors do an outstanding job communicating the love God has for them and what His intenstions are for sexuality. I highly recommend these books for children of all ages.

A good place to start

As a Christian Parent raised in a family that never discussed sex, I found this book (and the series) to be a great starting point. It hits all the right topics in a way that communicates a Christian view without using guilt or sounding preachy. Parents should read it themselves, then pass it on to their child. Don't wait for your child to hit puberty before you start talking about this important subject.

Used by a large west-coast church for sex education
