Two LDS counselors share their personal triumph over sexual addiction and a path to freedom:
-A raw and honest discussion about why LDS men can often struggle so desperately with pornography and sexual addiction
-Written by addicts in successful recovery - for those seeking recovery
-Based on more than two decades of work with LDS men
-A unique and powerful blend of clinical and personal experience
"Steve and Mark have given the LDS community a great gift in sharing both their personal experience and their knowledge gleaned from helping many others over the years find peace. At a time when too many men surrender to the lie that pornography addiction will be their lifelong companion, Steve and Mark tell their powerful story, share their perceptive insights, and outline the path to both freedom and wholeness for all who are willing to find and walk the road to recovery."
-Donald L. Hilton Jr, MD, Neurosurgeon, author of He Restoreth My Soul
"This book is long overdue! As a professional who treats primarily LDS pornography addiction, I see the devastating effects of shame and secrecy. Because of their personal experience and professional experience, I think only Mark and Steve could illustrate the pornography paradox. This book does such a good job at identifying the subtitles of shame that are so pervasive with this problem. They understand that the issue is not about pornography use, but about Satan's plan to destroy with self-doubt, self-rejection and shame. Reading this book gives the reader a whole new paradigm on pornography addiction and an understanding that pornography addiction is about so much more than just viewing porn. I would recommend this to anyone who is struggling, anyone who is contemplating treatment, and anyone who is already in recovery. It educates, it validates, and it boldly tackles the real issues with pornography and the LDS culture."
