About Dannah Twenty-five years after its debut with more than 300,000 copies sold, the revised and updated edition of And the Bride Wore White returns for one of the most debated conversations in the church today: purity culture.
Purity culture has recently been dismissed or deconstructed. Bestselling author and ministry leader Dannah Gresh affirms that many of the biblical truths it sought to protect surrounding sexuality, covenant, and the dignity of the body must still remain today. She calls for a reconstruction of the conversation.
Dannah revisits her story with a new perspective and candidly shares her early relational struggles, the shame she carried, and the freedom she discovered through Christ. Dannah has spent thirty years studying Scripture and the cultural forces shaping young women today. She equips the next generation with wisdom, compassion, and practical guidance for navigating sexuality in a hyper-sexualized world.
