Wait For Me: Rediscovering the Joy of Purity in Romance is a 2002 book written by Christian pop and rock singer-songwriter Rebecca St. James. It was inspired by her popular song, "Wait for Me", which was also the title of her 2000 46-city concert tour. The book, like the song, is about the values of remaining a virgin until marriage.[1] The title also carried through to her 2003 compilation album, Wait For Me: The Best From Rebecca St. James.[2] The book reached No. 1 on the Christian Booksellers Association Best Seller List for Young Adults.[3][4]
In 2003, Rebecca released a personal journal for the book entitled Wait For Me Journal: Thoughts For My Future Husband. In 2005 she released a study guide for the book entitled Wait For Me Study Guide: Discover the Power of Purity.
