Taking Action for the Course of Purity

"God has given me a message about sexual purity that He has promised to bless and that He's asked me to steward."

Staff Reports/CR (May 2nd, 2007)

With society constantly overwhelming men and boys at younger and younger ages with a flood of sexual images and messages, it's very difficult for them to stay the course towards purity. But one man, Fred Stoecker, feels he's been called to be a "steward" and beacon for purity in men. And that's precisely what he's doing. He wants to help turn the tide on temptation and equip men for the battle they face.

"God has given me a message about sexual purity that He has promised to bless and that He's asked me to steward," Stoeker says. "That's a big responsibility, and as I kneel to shoulder that load...."

With a mission that is more urgent today than ever, Stoeker is addressing the needs of a generation that is struggling to live with purity, or even to see that as possible. "The cost of sexual sin is enormous, but young people don't always recognize the danger," he says. "What seems like freedom soon becomes a prison of destructive desires and behaviors."

With his words on the truth behind dangerous sexual behaviors, Stoeker has released a new book entitled Tactics, which teaches a defensive stance towards temptation, and how to take purity beyond sex. His next release, scheduled for this month, is a CD to reinforce the defensive attitude by using football metaphors. The CD titled Win This War features the struggle for purity. Two of its songs will be released to the radio this month.
