I love this discussion. It seems like it is hard to find people who are black and believe in purity. I experienced a lot of what the couple has experienced.

Hey Herb!
I truly appreciate you taking the time out to listen to the discussion. I am so glad that you enjoy it and it means a lot to have you leave a comment sharing your thought too. Thank you!
There may not be a lot of people who understand or practice purity now, but I believe that’s slowing changing as people gain and understanding of the importance of purity and how it can benefit them.
I’m curious, what have you learned from your experience?
Thank you for your comment and I look forward to hearing from you.
God bless you!
