Sexual Purity

Sex education begins at birth whether we intend it to or not. It is important with the prevalence of sexual content in society today that we become proactive in education of not only our children but also ourselves to the dangers of sexual immorality and its effects on us, our family, and generations to come. We have compiled a list of relative resources to help you in the battle.
