The romantic “dramedy” follows the lives of two sisters who are polar opposites and share their journey through abstinence in the 21st century.Stephens said the film is “really geared towards women in the struggle of abstinence,” noting the importance of encouraging women and men alike to honor their bodies and value the sacredness of marriage.
“I realize the power in abstinence; I realize the power that we have to say no,” Stephens said. “Find the yes in saying no.”
Stephens noted that dating today is hard enough, and that once most Christian women have found someone worthy of dating, the process that follows is often very quick or rushed.
“It’s hard in these streets to date, number one. And when you find someone to date, they’re so fast, they’re so quick, and it is such a challenge, as a Christian woman, to try to remain abstinent,” Stephens declared.
