A workbook that rocks

A great accompaniment to the book. The topics and explanation lead to a great discussion. And all that leads to the Bible and is ultimately Christ centered.

Excellent; perfect for teenage girls of today

As a 17-year-old teenage girl, I found that this book was exactly what I needed. Sex has become almost casual among my peers, and I had been struggling to "swim against the tide," so to speak. I had even begun to doubt my morals and beliefs as a Christian. When I was given this book as a graduation gift, I was initially skeptical. I expected that this book would be too much from an adult's perspective; I expected that I wouldn't be able to relate. Was I surprised! I could certainly relate to "Every Young Woman's Battle." It addressed nearly every doubt I'd been having as of late, and it provided meaningful assistance for me to get out of some of Satan's snares. I am so thankful that Shannon Ethridge wrote this book. If I had not read it and gained the valuable insight that I have, I'm not sure that I could stand against the pressure to "fit in" in college this fall. I would highly recommend this book to anyone; it is wonderful!

A very great and depth book to read

I like this book very much. Although it was targeted to teenagers, I still picked up the book even if I am a decade older. The main selling point of this book is the author talked about sexuality to teens. Guild the girls through what to do when guys approached to them with sexual requests. Each chapter has a few case studies, and are detailly written with bible verses to support. I usually can easily finished a book in one sitting, but this one I couldn't. After each chapter, I need to put down the book and think what I had done with my past. I finally understood my problem as my memory flashed back. This book made my day every time I read the new chapter. There was so much in the book you will need time to digest. I am single at the moment, and honestly I am desperate for love (marriage). I didn't simply find this book just talking about sexuality, but the way to see your life as a single as well. Great quotes and messages in the book. You will be a new woman after reading it. Recommended not only for teens, but singles.

Great Book! Pity you can only rate 5 star!

Hey! When I read this book, I couldn't beleive how great it was! I picked it up thinking "Mum bought me a book... Great." But I was so wrong! Shannon Ethridge's book: "Every Young Woman's Battle" is a great book for Girls aged 11 to adult. It describes how to be a great sexually pure woman, and gives you tips on how to be this. It makes young women feel confident about their future and ready to start living their destiny to their full potential. Way to go Shannon!
