The thrill of the chaste - Dawn Eden

When Dawn Eden first wrote The Thrill of the Chaste in late 2005, she was a Jewish convert to Protestant Christianity, preparing to make the final leap into Catholicism. Now, Eden has extensively updated The Thrill of the Chaste, sharing how her Catholic faith, the lives and intercession of the saints, and the healing power of the sacraments have led her to find her true identity in Christ. This revised, Catholic version offers spiritual and practical advice for both men and women seeking to live chastely in a world that glorifies sex. While first exploring how childhood wounds influenced her understanding of sexuality, Eden offers readers inspiration by drawing upon the spirituality of healing she expands upon in her other book, My Peace I Give You.

Dawn Eden is a blogger and author of The Thrill of the Chaste: Finding Fulfillment While Keeping Your Clothes On (originally published in 2006 and now available in a new, revised Catholic edition) and My Peace I Give You: Healing Sexual Wounds with the Help of the Saints. She speaks throughout North America and abroad and has been featured in the New York Times and on EWTN.
