Married a Virgin
Author: Rutendo Samantha Nazitwere
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1514455072
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 49
Book Description
At a young age the Lord told me that I would write books and that my first book would be a testimony of how the Lord helped me to get married a virgin; he said it was going to be my duty to tell other ladies to walk in purity because that is what he desires for them all. At that age I did not even know I would get married a virgin but anything the Lord says comes to pass. Married a Virgin hopefully will help young women understand why the Lord desires us to walk in purity and resist the lusts of the flesh (1 john 2:16). A lot of young people today have multiple sexual partners and they do not understand that they are sinning against their own bodies and in the process forming ungodly soul ties. Children as young as 10 are sexually active because society does not dispute immorality. Engaging in sexual activity is actually viewed as a norm. As a counselor ,I have spoken to a lot of young children and this is their view. The social media, movies, and music potray sex in various forms thereby creating curiosity to explore sex at a premature age. Guidance ,counsel and advice are therefore important in a young persons life. Corinthians 6:18 says, Keep on running away from sexual immorality. Any other sin that a person commits is outside his body but the person who sins sexually sins against his own body. There are many Christian women who are struggling with sex outside marriage but the Lord Jehovah is willing to forgive those who truly repent and change their lifestyles. God showed me a vision that made me understand the dangers of having sex outside of marriage in this generation. A lot of immorality is taking place in the world today. I do not think I am better than anyone else but my goal is to help people understand the importance of abiding by Gods commandments.

Belabored
Author: Lyz Lenz
Publisher: Bold Type Books
ISBN: 1541762827
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 189
Book Description
In Belabored, Lyz Lenz will "make you cry in one paragraph and snort-laugh in the next" (Chloe Angyal, contributing editor at MarieClaire.com). Written with a blend of wit, snark, and raw intimacy, Belabored is an impassioned and irreverent defense of the autonomy, rights, and dignity of pregnant people. Lenz shows how religious, historical, and cultural myths about pregnancy have warped the way we treat pregnant people: when our representatives enact laws criminalizing abortion and miscarriage, when doctors prioritize the health of the fetus over the life of the pregnant patient in front of them, when baristas refuse to serve visibly pregnant women caffeine. She also reflects on her own experiences of carrying her two children and seeing how the sacrifices demanded during pregnancy carry over seamlessly into the cult of motherhood, where women are expected to play the narrowly defined roles of "wife" and "mother" rather than be themselves. Belabored is an urgent call for us to trust women and let them choose what happens to their own bodies, from a writer who "is on a roll" (Bitch Magazine).

Virgin and Other Stories
Author: April Ayers Lawson
Publisher: Farrar, Straus and Giroux
ISBN: 0865478708
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
A confident and mesmerizing fiction debut, from the winner of the Plimpton Prize Set in the South, at the crossroads of a world that is both secular and devoutly Christian, April Ayers Lawson's stories evoke the inner lives of young women and men navigating sexual, emotional, and spiritual awakenings. In "The Negative Effects of Homeschooling," Conner, sixteen, accompanies his grieving mother to the funeral of her best friend, Charlene, a woman who was once a man. In "The Way You Must Play Always," Gretchen, who looks young even for thirteen, heads into her weekly piano lesson in nervous anticipation of her next illicit meeting with her teacher's brother, Wesley. Thin and sickly, wasting from a brain tumor, Wesley spends his days watching pornography and smoking pot, and yet Gretchen can only interpret his advances as the first budding of love. And in the title story, Jake grapples with the growing chasm between him and his wife, Sheila, who was still a virgin when they wed. At a cocktail party thrown by a wealthy donor to his hospital, he ponders the intertwining imperatives of marriage--sex and love, violation and trust, spirituality and desire--even as he finds himself succumbing to the temptations of his host. Self-assured and sensual, Virgin and Other Stories is the first work of a young writer of unusual mastery.
