Clean and Free: A Biblical Counselor's Guide for Understanding and Counseling Addictive Behaviors (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781098046712)

There is a crisis in the world today, and that is the crisis of addiction. It is not new nor even extraordinary, but common and universal in the history of mankind.

The world is always looking for answers--for reasons and solutions to all of our problems. There is a new remedy out there for everything it seems and they all claim to have the sure thing. The problem is that too many of them don't work at all and too many more simply miss the mark. They don't really understand what the root of the problem is, and therefore, cannot find the solution. This is evident in the war on addiction: what it is and whom it affects. Where can we find the truth of what it is, and its root cause, and how to defeat it?

The Bible is the most amazing book in the history of the world. It not only tells us what our problem is, but also how it came to be, what its consequences are, and even how it can be corrected. The answers are all there if we are careful to look.

This work is a biblical understanding of addictive behaviors and how, in just a few steps, we can identify them and overcome them. God loves you and wants you to be free and for your life and family to be restored. He came to this fallen world in the person of Jesus Christ to make us clean and free.
