Frequently Asked Questions
1. What does PurityWorks do?
PurityWorks is a non-profit organization that seeks to educate parents
in methods of training in purity of heart and sexual purity. We are
not a teen abstinence program, although PurityWorks takes advantage
of many opportunities to train individuals of all ages in purity. Along
with this training, PurityWorks makes resources available for such
training, like The Princess and the Kiss, The Squire and
the Scroll,
Life Lessons books and other resources. PurityWorks provides these
training and resources all over the world.
2. What is Planned Purity?
Planned Purity is Jennie Bishop's model that explains how purity is formed
in a life, beginning from the youngest years. When applied to parenting
as a methodology or to an adult life as an assessment tool, the model
teaches how to build a "household of purity" by teaching and modeling
a lifestyle of purity of heart as a foundation. This can naturally
lead to an understanding and pursuit of sexual purity.
3. Where can I learn more about Planned Purity?
Planned Purity is taught through conferences, speaking
engagements and through Jennie's books. Soon
it will be available in an adult format and as a small group study.
4. How can I get PurityWorks to come to my church, school, or organization?
Contact us through this web site or by calling
our offices at (407) 792-8141.
5. Can I teach Planned Purity?
Absolutely. One of PurityWorks' goals is to make this method approachable
for any committed facilitator. Resources are on the way to provide
this training. Contact our offices for more
information.
6. Can I host a PurityWorks conference, seminar or event?
Yes. If your church, a group of churches, or a local organization would
like to bring Jennie and the PW team in for a conference, you may contact
us as we've mentioned above.
7. How can I help PurityWorks?
Giving is crucial to any not-for-profit organization. Your generous contributions are
what make us able to continue to share the vital message of purity here
and overseas.
But there are other ways to help, too. If you live in Central Florida,
you may volunteer for office help or for specific events in the area.
Some of our volunteers even travel to be available for conferences or
speaking engagements.
You can serve as a team member on an overseas trip. No experience is
needed - just a heart full of love for others and a passion to share
purity.
You can also train to teach Planned Purity or
lead a small group.
8. I'd like to support PurityWorks financially on an ongoing basis.
How can I do that?
We are a non-profit organization that is run entirely by funds from those
who share our passion to see purity training change families, individuals,
and the world. Your generous giving covers not
only our administration costs, but allows us to approach new opportunities
across the globe. We have huge vision, and are only limited by the funds
we receive.
9. Can I serve on an overseas trip with PurityWorks?
We would love to have you serve on a team. Information on
upcoming trips is available on this web site and through our offices.
10. How much does it cost to host a PurityWorks event?
Costs for PurityWorks events are more than reasonable. Consider your
budget in terms of travel, hotel and speaking fees, remembering, please,
that we operate entirely on donations. There are a range of fees according
to the engagement (a single speaking engagement is one talk, a conference
is three) and to the opportunities for teaching, feedback and communication
you wish to provide. You may wish to charge a registration fee to cover
costs or take up an offering. In any case, contact
us and we will speak to you personally about the details of fees
and arrangements for events and appearances.
