My Perspective

 

This book covers a deep, dark topic that no one wants to talk about – sexual sin. The thing is, this whispered about sin is everywhere in our country today. Everywhere in the world for that matter. We need some Christians to speak out about it, share their own experiences, and guide men into making better choices and breaking the chain of sin in their lives. Women, you can apply this book to your lives too. The world often thinks that sexual sin only happens to men, but that is certainly not the case. I honestly think perhaps the author should rethink the marketing on this book, because I found it to be applicable to women as well.

I found it comforting that the author included his own personal story in each and every chapter. In a secret such as this, it’s nice to know you aren’t alone. The people that truly need this book, need to know that there’s someone out there just like them. Someone they can connect with and learn from. I also like how in every “Take Action” section he pointed out responses for both married men and single men. Truly the answers are going to differ for each.

While this book may not particularly pertain to me today, I can see how it can have a big impact in someone’s life. There are bible verses to reference – you may just want to check with your own version if it is different then what the author uses. I think this will give a lot of insight into a problem that seems to getting bigger instead of smaller. I recommend sharing it with someone who you think may benefit from it! I received a complimentary copy of this book. I was not required to write a favorable review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Guest Post from Dave

 

This is not a fluffy book. I talk about the real things that guys in my purity group were going through in their struggles, as well as my own story. It reflects my 10 years of leading men through their journey to purity, which is only found in Christ and with God’s power.

Some of the devotions get gritty, and real. In Revelation 12:11 it says, “ And they have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony.” I wanted the reader to say to themselves, “this guy is real. He’s been through this and has overcome. If he can do it, I can do it.”

I heard one writer say that you have to have that personal connection with the reader through your honesty. “You have to bleed all over the pages.” That’s what I did.
