    Sex and the Single Christian Girl is an inspirational book.  Marian Jordan Ellis speaks with a lot of wisdom.  One of the neat things about this book is that Marian addresses the problem with romantic comedies portrayal of sex.  Marian talks about how romantic comedies portray sex with no consequences.  Every girl loves to watch a romantic comedy.  They are a must for girls night.  My friend and I were recently discussing how sex was portrayed on television.  People can have sex on television and in romantic comedies without emotional problems, STDs, or pregnancies.  With romantic comedies portraying things like that no wonder the world today sees sex outside of marriage as so acceptable.  Marian addresses how all single girls and women today can realize the true worth of purity in today's world.

    Marian does a great job of addressing purity on a spiritual level.  The beauty of Sex and the Single Christian Girl is that it talks about how purity is a very spiritual process.  Women should be pure because they know they are cherished.  Marian talks about how beautiful purity is when it is done because of a love for Jesus.  Marian helps women realize the true worth of purity and a relationship with God.  She also helps girls realize their worth because of Jesus' death on the cross for them.  One of the best things she said is that girls should settle for nothing less than a man who helps magnify the greatness of what Jesus did for them.  This book gets two thumbs up from a single Christian girl who works with pregnant and parenting teen girls!  It is a must read for every single girl.
