Inhaltsangabe

Men who are sexually addicted tell themselves many lies, including, "Nobody will find out," and "I am not hurting anyone." In time, however, the lies are exposed as a man's life becomes more and more out of control. Fortunately, countless men have discovered the new beginning that results from a commitment to recovery.

This book offers insights on the following issues:

• What is sexual addiction?
• Why can't I stop destructive behaviors?
• The sexual addiction cycle and acting-out rituals
• The role of anger, anxiety, and depressed mood in sexual addiction
• Is there hope I can change my behavior?
• Men in Biblical history who struggled
• Spirituality in recovery

Paul Becker offers gentle guidance on how to step out of isolation into a life of enlightenment. Becker helps readers understand that God never backed away from loving them. Recovery takes time but is possible through the support of clergy members, accountability partners, and family members.
