Sadie Robertson continues to spread her faith.

In her new book, Live Original: How the Duck Commander Teen Keeps It Real and Stays True to Her Values, the Duck Dynasty reality star is sharing her personal advice for other teenagers about how to stay pure in romantic relationships and avoid premarital sex.

In fact, during an interview with Inside Edition, the 17-year-old revealed three specific tips that she follows to remain chaste: Don't stay home alone together, stay out of each other's bedrooms and pray together before dates or "whenever you need to."

"You could be the strongest Christian in the world, but when you're home alone it just adds that pressure," she said. "It's just good not to put yourself in a position where you would have to stand up for yourself."

"Keep God at the top of the relationship, because if you keep God at the top things are probably going pretty good for you," she added

So, how does Robertson's boyfriend, Blake Coward, feel about her abstinence crusade? According to the aspiring model and fashion designer, he's totally on board!

"My boyfriend is very supportive of me publicly displaying my decision to stay pure until marriage," the Dancing With the Stars contestant said.

"As teenagers, you get ‘the talk' from adults and it's one thing to hear it from someone that went through it and is older than you, but it's another to hear it from someone who's going through it with you," Robertson continued. "It's important for a teenager to hear it from another teenager. It's good to show that you can be different and you can still be cool."
