Overcoming Pornography Addiction: A Spiritual Solution (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780809147977)

J. Brian Bransfield presents in this book the struggle of internet pornography in the context of the encounter of Jesus with the Woman of Samaria. Many today find themselves in a similar place. They are hungry for Jesus, but continually fall short. Men in particular experience the pain of internet pornography. Overcoming Pornography Addiction presents the practical way in which the teaching of the church can move us from sin to grace, from pain to healing, through an honest appraisal of the pain of internet pornography and the wonderful beauty of grace and virtue. Unique to this title is its emphasis on Pope John Paul's theology of the body in regard to the freedom from internet pornography. This work also places the treatment of the topic in the context of a familiar gospel story of Jesus with the woman of Samaria, who herself has suffered much at the hands of many men. Using familiar images, popular teaching, and incorporating an understanding of addiction and human sexuality, this work appreciates the struggle of persons suffering from internet pornography use and recognizes their human dignity and worth. +
