Pure in Heart: Sexual Sin and the Promises of God
Digital Logos Edition
Overview
Experience Freedom from Sexual Sin through the Power of the Savior.
For those struggling with sexual sin, the battle may feel overwhelming. Drowning in desperation, many throw themselves into doing more and trying harder, only to land discouraged—doomed to repeat the same cycles over and over. Is there really hope for true and lasting change?
In Pure in Heart, pastor J. Garrett Kell offers a resounding yes. Inviting readers to learn from his own journey with sexual sin and brokenness, he calls them to the path of purity—purity that comes not from their own strength but is fueled by the promise and beauty of the Lord. The way to sexual purity is through beholding the only one who is pure and who can transform his followers from the inside out. Profoundly practical and deeply personal, this book is bold and clear, full of guidance from a faithful friend. This handbook is what many need to help them put sexual sin to death and experience true freedom.
