Book Talk Tuesday on a Thursday

I want to let local readers know that Pastor Jim Cecy will be signing The Purity War this coming Saturday at noon at Majesty Bible Book Store at Cedar and Herndon. He’d love it if you’d stop by. I’d love it if you told him you read about it here.

Click here for my review.

See you there!

 

Also, my weeks and especially Fridays have been more than a little crazy lately. I hope The Band-Box Hat will return tomorrow. Stay tuned!

Book Talk Tuesday: The Purity War

 

Tuesday’s are mostly about fiction, but when I read a particularly stellar non-fiction book, I’ve been known to mention it on the blog.

The Purity War by Dr. James M. Cecy deserves a Book Talk Tuesday review.

Pastor Jim has been teaching on, preaching on, writing about, studying about, speaking on, and living purity for not just years, but decades now. He knows what he’s talking about.

The book is interwoven with lots of Scripture, personal anecdotes and solid teaching. It is designed to be used for both personal and corporate study, for accountability groups, for discipleship. There are discussion questions and accountability worksheets.

The book is broken up into sections with chapters. The sections cover topics relating to personal purity such as The Need, God’s Design, The Way of Escape and The Way Forward, as well as others. It’s a practical guide about how to get pure, if you’re not, and how to stay pure, if you are.

It can be purchased here.

I recommend it!

(Disclaimer: Pastor Jim and his wife and family are personal friends and I helped with the editing and proofing of the manuscript, so I’m not completely unbiased. However, I’m convinced of the need for this book in our families, our churches, and our culture.)
