Winning the Battle Within: Realistic Steps to Overcoming Sexual Strongholds
For too many believers, God's wonderful creation of sex has become a source of spiritual slavery rather than a liberating blessing. Neil T. Anderson presents a clarifying, refreshing look at God's plan for sex and how Christians can release a distorted view of physical intimacy and embrace a pure, godly view of this gift. With biblical advice and compassion, Anderson points to the way out of confusion and shame by
- exposing the guilt, anger, and fear involved in sexual struggles
- showing how believing the truth breaks the sexual and emotional lies
- giving practical steps to overcome spiritual entrapment with God's Word
As Christians grasp what the Bible says about who they really are—God's loved children and new creations in His Son—they will be able to enjoy and value His marvelous design for their emotions and bodies.
A newly updated and expanded version of Finding Freedom In a Sex-Obsessed World.
Top Highlights
“Our flesh has an incredible propensity to rationalize, which is why tempting thoughts must be stopped the moment we first encounter them.” (source)
“Sexual bondage is a body, soul, and spirit problem that requires a body, soul, and spirit answer, as do all other mental and emotional problems.” (source)
“We must believe the truth of who we are in Christ and change how we live as children of God.” (source)
“We don’t live obediently hoping that God may someday accept us. We are already accepted by God, so we live obediently. We don’t labor in God’s vineyard hoping that He may someday love us. God already loves us, so we joyfully labor in His vineyard. It is not what we do that determines who we are—it is who we are and what we believe that determines what we do.” (source)
“‘I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid’ (Genesis 3:10). To this day, anxiety disorders are the number-one mental health problem of the world, and ‘fear not’ is the most repeated command in Scripture.” (source)
