Why Nicole Hate's Purity Conferences:
"Actually, I always loved going to purity conferences. I went to so many between jr. high and high school. I read every single purity/dating book that was ever printed in those years and I followed everything they ever said to do. I signed a commitment card, I wore a purity ring, I wrote out a list of qualities that I wanted in my future husband, I never dated, I drew the line of how far was too far, and I did many other things. But what I found out is that all those things can be good, but those are not what makes you pure. Wearing a purity ring doesn't magically make you pure.
Purity is the by-product of a right relationship with Christ.
Only by Christ's grace an power are we able to live a life of purity. So, I just hate how purity is explained by works. Purity isn't something that we have to work for or check off the steps to attaining purity. We just need to sit at the feet of Jesus and allow Him to work in our lives. He sees us as pure when His blood washes us clean. We need to follow Him!"
Nicole's Bio:
Nicole was married to her best friend, Dan, in the fall of 2004. They have one son, Qorban, who was born in 2007 and reside in San Marcos, CA. She is the founder and director of Waiting for the One ministries. Nicole is the co-author of Waiting for the One and co-author of Waiting for the One Workbook with Dan Leitz. She speaks at many conferences, retreats, and various girls’ events. It is her desire to encourage girls to walk in the power of the Lord and know that it is not impossible to live a life of purity!
During high school, Nicole devoted her life to snowboarding, but right before this hobby became a profession, God asked her if she would give it up to serve Him. In 2003, she humbly gave up her greatest desire and life to serve Jesus. She married her first boyfriend whom she met in college and has pursued a life of purity. God has equipped her with incredible passion and insight to speak to girls about what it is like to give up everything, serve Him with your whole heart, and commit to a life of purity.
