Abstract: This study explores the factors that contribute to North American missionary men living lives marked by sexual purity. It uses a mixed method design that incorporates both descriptive and quantitative date analysis in an effort to determine the impact of: (1) family of origin and past life experiences, (2) missionary life stresses, and (3) the practice of different disciplines on the lives of missionary men serving in cross-cultural contexts overseas. Overseas male missionaries from five North American evangelical mission agencies (617 men) were asked to participate in an anonymous web-based survey. 226 men completed the survey from which the data were extracted. Prevalent themes and factors impacting male missionary sexual purity emerge from the study Study results point to the importance of past life experiences, the impact of cross-cultural life stresses, and the employment of specific disciplines in a man's life. These factors affect a man's pursuit of sexual purity.
