Quest for Love: True Stories of Passion and Purity Paperback - 2013

by Elisabeth Elliot


From the publisher

I have deep feelings for this guy, but he says I'm like a sister to him. What should I do?"
"Why should a man still be expected to initiate romance?"
"Isn't it okay to spend time together if we're just friends?"
"If I never marry, will God take that desire away?"

These are some of the many questions posed in letters to Elisabeth Elliot by readers of her bestselling book Passion and Purity. In this beautifully repackaged edition of Quest for Love, she responds with sound, biblical guidance, dusting off "antiquated" concepts such as commitment, integrity, honor, and servanthood, and showing how they still apply to dating and singleness today. Intertwined are hopeful true stories of discovering love through God's direction.

From the rear cover

"I have deep feelings for this guy, but he says I'm like a sister to him. What should I do?"

"Why should a man still be expected to initiate romance?"

"Isn't it okay to spend time together if we're just friends?"

"If I never marry, will God take that desire away?"

These are some of the many questions posed in letters to Elisabeth Elliot by readers of her bestselling book Passion and Purity.

In Quest for Love, Elisabeth shares many of these letters and responds with sound, biblical guidance that will speak to your heart and your own situation. She dusts off "antiquated" concepts such as commitment, integrity, honor, and servanthood and shows how they still apply to dating and singleness today.

Intertwined are hopeful true stories of how men and women discovered love through God's direction. As you read these honest revelations, you'll be able to discern the better way by discovering what happens when we put our love lives under the authority of Jesus Christ.
