Average Rating: 
Rating: - One of the better resources I've reviewed on sexual addiction
I have read probably 5 books on sexual addiction. This one was very helpful. It breaks it down into a variety of needs that the addict attempts to meet through acting out, and it provides good help for parenting (and helping children avoid the same pitfall). It does not emphasize marriage, but does say that addicts may/may not be able to continue a marriage relationship, due to their personal struggles.
It also deals with divine healing, as well as the steps each addict must take to become whole. And it suggests ways a spouse can help. A good read!
Rating: - Everybody needs this book!
This is a great book! Everybody should read this to really connect with God in a big way. It's also a great tool to use with a small class. Thanks
Rating: - An excellent read
A great book that gets right to the issues at hand. I would recommend it to anyone I know, even if they are not directly affected by sexual addiction.
Rating: - The title says it all
This book brings incredible perspective and hope to those that struggle with sexual sin. It has completely opened my eyes to new ways of looking at addiction. Breaking Free does not simply tell you how to stop, it teaches you why the problem exists in the first place. I would not recommend this however to atheists or those who find it uncomfortable to put their faith in God. For Christians however, this book is an amazing tool for those who are sexually broken and those who are married to men struggling with sexual addiction.
