“People have misunderstood the purity pledge as being a virginity pledge. They’re not the same thing. Where a lot of people failed is that they try to obtain this level of ‘I’m almost better because I’m still a virgin’, when the whole message is about being pure, rather than it just being a physical thing.”

“Even after marriage we seek purity, and that doesn’t just involve whether you are a virgin or not.”

Charity committed to wearing a purity ring before dating, pledging her purity to God and to her future husband Stephen. The journey took them deeper into discovering what it actually means to live a life of purity before and after marriage.
