Alive: Gospel Sexuality for Students

“As our culture has cut itself loose from any sense of biblical mooring when it comes to sexuality, Alive steps into the massive gap that our youth are now facing. It unashamedly addresses the relevant issues, and brings students through the Scriptures to understand Gods will as well as the heart motivations behind each behavior. The rising generation will be well served by Pinsons biblical and compassionate discipleship.”

“Students today are being bombarded with messages of broken sexuality. As parents and youth workers, we know that it is important to share Gods perspective, but often do not know where to start. Alive: Gospel Sexuality for Students presents a gospel-centered approach to this complex topic. It pushes us to look beyond the fruit of sexual sin to the issues of the heart in a practical and grace-filled way.”

“Talking about sexuality can be a daunting task, but Alive is an amazing study for students that clearly defines gospel sexuality by providing theologically rich teaching, practical insight, and discussion-oriented lessons. We live in a world that is constantly telling students that God is keeping them from something great, and we must show them that God is actually preserving them for something greater. This is a must-use curriculum for every student ministry!”

“In the shifting sexual landscape of our time where anything goes and love wins our teenagers have readily accepted this new worldview. But when we, as parents and the church, fail to enter into the conversation, why should we be surprised when their cues from culture? To that end, Alive is the perfect and necessary resource to help teenagers, parents, and the church evaluate the issues through the framework of Gods good design of marriage and sex.”

“I highly recommend this new resource! Harvest USA does a great job bringing the conviction of Gods word as well as the compassion of the gospel to bear on the issues of human sexuality. Students will not only be informed, they will also be better equipped to offer the love of Jesus to friends who may be struggling and need a safe place to ask questions.”

“This book is helpful on many levels: its both solidly biblical and user-friendly practical; its pastoral and encouraging without softening the truth; and the topics it covers in chapters 4 through 10 are all ones desperately needing careful reflection from Christians today. I intend to use it with my graduate students this coming fall!”

“With the culture screaming skewed and destructive sexual guidance into our students ears around the clock, we must step up and speak Gods life-giving message about sex and sexuality into the lives of the kids we know and love. Alive provides much-needed gospel-centered content in a ready-to-use format that enables leaders to speak Gods life-giving message about sex and sexuality into students lives.”
