Book excerpt: "Every man who knocks on the door of a brothel is knocking for God." - G. K. Chesterton What if lust for porn is really a search for true passion? In a world where there are 68 million searches for pornography every day and where over 70 percent of Christian men report viewing porn in the last year, it's no surprise that more and more men struggle with an addiction to this false fantasy. Common wisdom says if they just had more willpower or more faith, their fight would be over. Is the answer really that simple? According to the counselor and ministry leader Michael John Cusick, the answer is no--but the big truth may be much more freeing.Backed by scripture, Cusick uses examples from his own life and from his twenty years of counseling experience to show us how the pursuit of empty pleasure is really a search for our heart's deepest desire--and the real key to to resistance is discovering and embracing the joy we truly want. Cusick's insights help readers understand how porn struggles begin, what to do to prevent them, and most importantly, how to overcome the compulsion once it begins. In the end, this powerful book shows us all how the barrier built by porn addiction can become a bridge to abundant life.

Download or read book All Things New written by John Eldredge and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2017-09-26 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times bestselling author John Eldredge offers readers a breathtaking look into God’s promise for a new heaven and a new earth. This revolutionary book about our future is based on the simple idea that, according to the Bible, heaven is not our eternal home--the New Earth is. As Jesus says in the gospel of Matthew, the next chapter of our story begins with "the renewal of all things," by which he means the earth we love in all its beauty, our own selves, and the things that make for a rich life: music, art, food, laughter and all that we hold dear. Everything shall be renewed "when the world is made new." More than anything else, how you envision your future shapes your current experience. If you knew that God was going to restore your life and everything you love any day; if you believed a great and glorious goodness was coming to you--not in a vague heaven but right here on this earth--you would have a hope to see you through anything, an anchor for your soul, "an unbreakable spiritual lifeline, reaching past all appearances right to the very presence of God" (Hebrews 6:19). Most Christians (most people for that matter) fail to look forward to their future because their view of heaven is vague, religious, and frankly boring. Hope begins when we understand that for the believer nothing is lost. Heaven is not a life in the clouds; it is not endless harp-strumming or worship-singing. Rather, the life we long for, the paradise Adam and Eve knew, is precisely the life that is coming to us. And that life is coming soon.

Do you know that no matter how dire or hopeless your life circumstances might seem, you can absolutely overcome sin, receive Gods mercy, and live a victorious life? Know this there is actually a way out of that dark tunnel, because no matter what youve done, God loves you and wants a relationship with you. Walk with Linda Sennett now, through the pages of a life once filled with sin, condemnation and unforgiveness, till she discovered Gods amazing grace and received total restoration, deliverance, reassurance, peace and freedom. What God did for Linda, He can do for you, because the promise of II Chronicles 7:14 is yours If my people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from Heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

Download or read book Healing the Masculine Soul written by Gordon Dalbey and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2003-09-09 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his groundbreaking book fifteen years ago, Gordon Dalbey identified the fact that men's souls have been torn between strength and sensitivity. Today, the situation is even worse. The politically correct crowd cries out for men to be more sensitive, to tame their masculine nature. On the opposing side, the media bombards men with "macho" images of violence and lust. Is it any wonder men are left bewildered about who they should be? In this newly revised and updated edition of Healing the Masculine Soul, Dalbey claims that there's hope for restoration, hope for healing-because Christ has come to heal us. God is calling men out to a relationship with Himself and calling them out to authentic manhood. "Our task is not to curse our manhood, but to redeem it," he writes. Gordon Dalbey's refreshing, comprehensive picture of God's design for the masculine soul dares men to be as God created them to be-not as society demands. Dalbey tackles the tough issues, including work, sexuality, marriage, and fatherhood. Book includes Study Guide.

These areas are ALL greatly needed; how about the RESTORATION of the soul? We don't spend much time ministering to the soul of man. If and when the soul is restored through the Word of God, then these other areas of life can be cleaned up and be brought into alignment. It is through the soul that the issues of life flow. If this is your place of flow, then it behooves us to ensure the water that's flowing is clean and clear! Let me make you aware of something, soul restoration is not a permanent or automatic state of being; it is an ongoing process of healing as the events and situations of life occur. With this in mind, please allow me the incredible honor and opportunity of taking you by the hand, leading you through the valley of the shadow of death, as the rod and staff of God comfort you; and bring you to a table that's been prepared before you in the presence of the enemy of your soul. When our journey is completed, you too, like me, will declare: "He Restores My Soul!"

Book excerpt: Technology has accelerated our fascination with pleasure. Indeed, the power of pleasure has been underestimated, and Internet pornography is changing the world in a fundamental way.In this book, author Donald L. Hilton Jr., MD explores the destructive power of pornography addiction, not just from a moral and spiritual perspective, but with the scrutiny of modern science. Current research tells us that there is little difference in physical or chemical changes in the pleasure and control centers of the brain regardless of whether the addiction is "from a chemical or an experience," as stated in the journal Science. (Constance Holden, "Behavioral Addictions: Do They Exist? Science, 294 (5544) 2 November 2001, 980.)Relying on the latest research on addiction, and merging this knowledge with spiritual aspects of repentance and recovery, the author provides understanding and hope to those who seek healing and restoration of both body and spirit, which are the "soul of man."
