God has Created Us for a Life of Personal Holiness

Every day we are invited into a world where we can create, customize, and even change our identity. Many guys today would like life to be more like a video game where they can create whatever character they see fit with all the attributes they think are important. It seems that our culture is trying to import a consumer mentality—one that tells us we can have whatever we want whenever we want it—into our daily lives.

Speaking directly to the hearts of guys, Authentic Love: Christ, Culture, and the Pursuit of Purity exposes our culture’s distorted messages about purity and love and reveals how God has created us for a life of personal holiness. Over the course of eight sessions, guys will discover the true attributes of a holy life that should shape our identity as followers of Christ. They will be challenged to reject the self-serving influences of culture and embrace what it means to pursue holiness and reflect the character of Christ.
