Description

In a world that glorifies sexual freedom, the call to chastity can feel impossible — or outdated. Yet from a Baha’i perspective, chastity is not repression but courage: the strength to honor our spiritual purpose and express love in its purest form. With wisdom, compassion, and honesty, Susan Gammage explores what it means to live a chaste and holy life today. She addresses real challenges — temptation, trauma, guilt, and desire — while guiding readers toward healing, prayer, and a deeper connection with God. Whether single or married, young or old, The Courage to Be Chaste offers practical insights and spiritual encouragement for anyone striving to walk the path of purity with courage, dignity, and joy.
