I used A Case for Chastity with my high school juniors and they really enjoyed a new perspective that's contrary to our culture. They read the book and then we had many lively class discussions about chastity. It helped all of them to reconsider what it means to love love someone. Many of them seriously considered chastity for the first time. Others said it confirmed their decision to live chastely. Almost every students said they would recommend it to a peer. I would definitely recommend this book for teachers to use in the classroom, or for any teenager.
Finally, a resource we can use for our kids! Rating:

Besides the fact that one of the authors was my college roommate...Having known Pete, this book shows that the authors preach what they practice. Pete gave me this same advice when we were in college together and my marriage is better off for knowing him. This book is also refreshingly faithful to the teachings of the Magesterium. (Thanks, Pete and Heather.) Probably the best part of this book is all the testimonials that Pete and Heather compiled. This shows, in the words of teens themselves, what kind of impact chastity can have in the lives of real people. Their testimony along with countless others, bears witness that chastity is possible! To paraphrase Chesterton, chastity hasn't been tried and found wanting. It has been wanted and found trying. Be a part of the generation that shows that chastity is the only way to true freedom!
The Best Present Ever! Rating:

I highly recommend this book not only to people who are unsure about chastity but those who already have chosen it because of its positive encouragement. Through reading this book and the personal stories, I am ready to take on the challenge of living true and full chastity. I will definitely be buying two more copies for my seventh grade male cousins!
