The Case for Early Marriage
Mark Regnerus wrote the following article in Christianity Today magazine. (FYI: It is not rated G.)
Amid our purity pledges and attempts to make chastity hip, we forgot to teach young Christians how to tie the knot.
Virginity pledges. Chastity balls. Courtship. Side hugs. Guarding your heart. Evangelical discourse on sex is more conservative than I’ve ever seen it. Parents and pastors and youth group leaders told us not to do it before we got married. Why? Because the Bible says so. Yet that simple message didn’t go very far in shaping our sexual decision-making.
