Customer Reviews

Honest and Fair

I found Speck to be open and frank in his discussion on sex, and included a number of testimonies from youth who are dealing with or have dealt with issues in regards to this. He bases everything he writes on the authority of God's Word, not picking a verse out of context, but the principles the Bible teaches as a whole, and applying these to specific situations. Good for a family read, youth group, or on your own.

Speck addresses tough issues with readability

Speck's gem of a book, Sex: It's Worth Waiting For, is pure gospel. Asserting that Jesus is the answer, Speck masterfully and tastefully weaves his way through the tangled web of teenage sexuality. He cuts no corners and leaves few stones unturned. Especially appreciated is the frank and useful chapter on masturbation. Although somewhat dated, the book is a helpful tool and an easy yet spiritually challenging book for the struggling teen.

A must read for teenagers and youth workers!

Interesting.Informative. Easy to read. Teenagers will enjoy. I am using this book as a basis for teenage sex education class as well as the videotapes. Mr. Speck even suggests to teenageers that they write to him regarding their concerns. This is an excellent book.
