Product Description
Have you ever asked yourself. . .

- Why should I wait for marriage to have sex?

- How far is too far?

- How do I say "no"?

- What if we really love each other?

- How do I find the right spouse?

- How do I start over?

- What about safe sex?

- How do I know if this is love?

These days, virgins may be embarrassed by their lack of "experience" while non-virgins may feel that it's too late for them. Men and women of all ages feel compelled to "take their relationships to the next level" - meaning they think it's time to have sex, not to try on wedding rings. Chastity author and speaker Jason Evert addresses these issues, and dozens more, in "If You Really Loved Me: 100 Questions on Dating, Relationships, and Sexual Purity."

The questions in this landmark work are the most common ones Evert is asked when speaking about the virtue of chastity in hundreds of Catholic, Evangelical Christian, and public schools. His humorous, friendly, and blunt approach opens hearts and minds to a topic often either rejected out of hand or misunderstood.

Teens will find this book a useful guide to starting a relationship, deciding one's vocation, one day finding a potential spouse, and maintaining purity - without forsaking love. This book will give parents and educators new insights to help teens know the difference between love and lust. They may even look at their own lives differently, because as Evert explains, chastity is not only for singles; married couples must practice this virtue as well.

"If You Really Loved Me" gives readers straight answers to tough questions. Addressing the relationship issues that today's young people face, Evert explains the often-misconstrued virtue of chastity - not as a rejection of human sexuality, but as an affirmation of authentic love.

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful   November 8, 2008
This is a wonderful work. It covers a wide variety of topics relating to vocations, dating, sex, relationships and the Catholic teaching behind each of them. He supports his ideas with references to Catholic documents, the works of the saints, secular authors, interesting statistics and, most importantly, Sacred Scripture. I would highly recommend this to any high school or college student as an essential piece of work to read. However, that is not to take away from the book because I would consider it extremely useful for parents, priests or anyone in Catholic education to read as well.


5 out of 5 stars Absolutely Beautiful   October 2, 2008
I adore this book. I am a female in my 20's and was introduced to this book several years ago by the mother of a boy I had a crush on (a little awkward, but whatever). It changed my life.

I have tried reading other Christian books before, but they always made me feel bad about myself (I was a wild child, who hates to read). This book was different. Not only did I get through the book without feeling like a sinner, but I finally understood why I've made questionable decisions throughout my young-adult life. It also showed me how and why to make the right decisions in the future. I finally believed that I'm not a bad person, and that if I love someone, and they love me back, we'll want nothing but the best for each other.

Since my first read, I've given it to my friends, parents, sisters, boyfriends, co-workers, and have referred back to it any time I need an lift. No matter what your age, gender, marital status, religion, or sexual history, this book will help you learn to love in a totally different way.

Thanks Jason!

As a teenager, this book has helped me develop a better relationship with God and myself. It may seem like a book that tells you to save sex for marriage but its way more than that. It answers a lot of questions that teenagers face everyday & are afraid to ask their parents. Jason Evert explains things so well and in a matter that teenagers can understand. I highly recommend this book for every Catholic teenager.


1 out of 5 stars Rubbish   August 5, 2008

"Is french kissing a mortal sin?"

The first section of the book seemed pretty bad, but as soon as I got to this question I had to laugh out loud. A mortal sin...french kissing...are you kidding me?!?! Talk about making frenching sound better than it is. After all if it could be a mortal sin, it must be good, right?

eAll in all this book has a way too conversative view on sex, and it seems like it was written for a 13 year old. For me, a 22 year old that is soon getting married, this book was of little value. I don't feel that the author is speaking to me or being honest.
In the trash it went.



5 out of 5 stars Excellent book for teens   June 30, 2008

We gave each of our three oldest sons a copy of this wonderful book by Jason Evert. The author has a unique, humorous and special way of communicating the truth in love. This book is especially helpful for the teen years, but I would strongly recommend it for young adults as well. I also highly recommend his video "Romance Without Regret."
