Yes to Sex...Just Not Yet!: A Practical Guide to Sexual Integrity for Young Adults: summary, description and annotation

Despite all the misguided ideas about Him, God is good, relational and has your best interests at heart. Furthermore, when it comes to sex, young people may be pleasantly surprised to hear what their Creator has to say about the subject. Like a present to be opened at Christmas, God has a perfectly crafted season for you to enjoy this special gift. Let it be known that God says, Yes to Sex! His answer isnt No, just Not yet! If youre willing to take the challenge, you can say the same. As a young adult you have a lot to deal with. I realize you already know that but perhaps its appreciated when someone identifies with the tough world you live in. There arent too many people these days that want to be in your shoes. Between the challenges of school and thoughts of the future, looking for a real friend, family drama and still, after all that, endeavoring to enter adulthood with some framework of character and fear of God, your life can probably get overwhelming. Lets not even touch the larger than life issues like trying to find out who you are or fitting in. I do not want to make you feel any more insecure than you might feel already or predict a grim report about your future. I just think its important to recognize your life for what it is. You have a huge future ahead of you in God but you also face a legitimate uphill climb to reach it. Simply put, your life demands courage. With that said, it is quite possible that sexual integrity isnt necessarily a fight you will choose to take on. Christian or not, it may seem easier to live sexually active and not bother swimming against the current of sexual acceptance or even deal with the peer pressure of resisting. Your thoughts might be: There are bigger things intimidating me right now and Im not sure if I have the energy or vision to fight off this battle. Ill just let whatever happens happenand pay the price later and hope for Gods mercy. Maybe He can help me fix whatever problems I might create now through sexual activity later after Im married. I dont condemn you for thinking that way sometimes. Besides, youre probably one of the many young adults who loves God and wants to do whats right. If you could snap your fingers and remain sexually inactive until you marry the right one Im sure you would. Although it doesnt work that way, perhaps if you at least had some helpful tools and enough inspiration, you would probably give Biblical sexual purity a real shot. Well, I believe that God has a message for you to hear and my hope is that some of those helpful tools will be found in this book. Sexual integrity according to the Bible is not about perfectionism. Just as easily as Christians can get sloppy and loose in this area, the best of us, on the flip side, can get legalistic and critical. We wont do well in either extreme. God simply wants your whole heart. God loves and wants the real you, both when youre at your best, and when youre at your worst. He wants you to welcome Him in every part of your life, including that part of you concerning sex, relationships and future marriage. God sees your desire to please Him and your passion to reach for Him in this area. You wouldnt be reading this book right now if it werent true. Again, Gods will is your sexual purity; but thankfully His way is always best. His instructions are for our benefit. His heart is for our good. Therefore this God-journey is intended to bless you. May this book be fuel for your specific and adventurous journey. You are special to God. Your desire for sex and marriage is God-given. He understands you and is bringing you into a place of significance and value.

Every teenager and young adult should read Yes to Sex. In our culture, where sexuality and sexual morality have been all but obliterated, Sam Beckworth communicates Biblical Truth in a culturally relevant, humorous and logical manner. After reading this book I believe that many teenagers and young adults will begin to understand that the Bible doesnt exist to stifle their fun, but to enrich and deepen their lives and their relationships, as well as to protect them from the consequences of their own poor choices. Although written with teenagers and young adults in mind, I believe that every parent and youth worker should read this book as well. I can think of no better tool to help us to communicate the importance of sexual purity to the young people in our sphere of influence.

Pastor Sam did a great job of explaining why waiting for sex is worth it. I enjoyed this book! Its very funny, easy to understand and doesnt make you feel uncomfortable. It has lots of valuable information. Every teen and young adult should read it!
Olivia De La Cruz, Age 14

This book is a must read for every parent and teen! We will be passing it on to our teen to read. Its full of great insight and wisdom. We highly recommend it!

As a 33-year-old woman waiting for Gods best mate for me, this book greatly encouraged me that my commitment to sexual purity is going to lead to a blessed marriage and life. Through personal stories and the Word of God, Pastor Sam rips the seductive mask off of sexual perversion, exposing its true destructive intent for its victims. In a world devastated by compromise, sexual purity is possible and it does matter! Yes to Sex is a challenging and refreshingly honest book that every young person waiting for a godly marriage needs to read.
Pastor Nicole Avila
San Jose, CA
As a 24-year-old fresh out of college, I guess you could say Ive gone through some temptations in search of the right one. Pastor Sams book not only offers great insight on how to live a godly life while being single, but also how to change your spiritual life from the inside out. Not many people can tackle a subject like this with humor and intellect as he does. Although the road ahead isnt easy, I feel more determined than ever to take on this monster called lust. While Ive personally struggled in several areas, this book spoke truth concerning my value and that God truly does have a purpose for me. I dont have to live in constant shame. This book is an excellent read for young adults worried about the future and struggling to keep a pure life. Sam makes it clear that my value is found in God alone, and it is He alone I should seek to prepare myself for the one He has for me in the future!
Mitchell Robinson, Age 24
Newport Beach, CA
My wife and I have had numerous conversations as a result of reading this book. We both wish we had a book like this earlier on in life. We began our marriage later in life and can attest to the truths that Pastor Sam brings to light. He is anointed to bring this vital message to a generation that desperately needs to hear that purity is possible, even in the over-sexualized world were a part of.

Every parent should buy this book! Our teen daughter read it and absolutely loved it. Not only did she enjoy reading it, she had a hard time putting it down. Having this book opened the door to conversations about sex and Godly conduct in dating and relationships. Our other kids will be reading this book as they enter their teen years, as well! Your home library wont be complete until you get this book.
Marcus and Melina De La Cruz, Parents
Porterville, CA
In this book Sam shares an easy-to-read, easy-to-understand view of sex as God made it a good and holy act designed for marriage. He touches on the topics and the scripture that young people need in order to understand Gods design, and intention, for sex. One of the few gifts we can bring to God is our obedience; Sam provides tools to help young men and women do just that in the area of sexuality. It will be a volume that will help many young people on their journey.
