I was pretty much shocked to read this article from the Sovereign Grace blog about how Joshua Harris' "I Kissed Dating Goodbye" has been used in classwork at a liberal school like Boston University to discuss modesty as a virtue. Then again, I have to think that there is a chance that a least a few are starting to notice the devastating results of the "hook-up" culture that seems to be prevalent today. In her article in the Wall Street Journal, Donna Freitas says of her students after reading Harris' book,
"They seemed shocked that somewhere in America there are entire communities of people their age who really do "save themselves" until marriage, who engage in old-fashioned dating with flowers and dinner and maybe a kiss goodnight."
I could probably just rehash everything that CJ Mahaney wrote in the article, but he probably says it better himself :)
