Seeking purity seems to have fallen out of vogue for contemporary Christians and laypeople, just as it did in the time of Hosea. Though Hosea was a minor prophet, his pages in the Bible address the major themes of purity, reprimand, restoration, and God's love for His people despite impurities, wickedness, and sin. In Seeking Purity: An In-depth Study of the Book of Hosea, Bible teacher and author Laura Ford digs into the book of Hosea and reveals the path to drawing closer to the Lord. Designed as a fourteen-week study for women of all ages, Seeking Purity explores the chapters and lessons of Hosea while also looking to the New Testament for the source of all love, affection, and redemption: Jesus Christ. Question and answer sections allow space and time to reflect upon the lessons either with a group or individually, and readers are encouraged to discover additional biblical linkages on their own. Since we serve a holy God, we too must be holy in order to draw close to Him. The lessons of Hosea-the wickedness of the Israelites and the proof and strength of God's love for them despite their sin-will inspire women to live lives of purity before the Lord. By being able to say without doubt, "I am a pure bride of Christ", we can experience true intimacy and know we are living the life we were created to live.
