From the television to the Internet, print media to videos, men are constantly faced with the assault of sensual images. It is impossible to avoid such temptations ... but, thankfully, not impossible to rise above them. Shattering the perception that men are unable to control their thought lives and roving eyes, Every Man's Battle shares the stories of dozens who have escaped the trap of sexual immorality and presents a practical, detailed plan for any man who desires sexual purity. Perfect for men who have fallen in the past, those who want to remain strong today, and all who want to overcome temptation in the future. Includes a special section for women, designed to help them understand and support the men they love.

Excellent book. Very forthright and practical. I would strongly urge any man whether single or married to get a copy of this book if they are serious about sexual purity and integrity. The workbook portion at the end of the book is especially helpful in digesting what you've read and applying it to your life.

A very helpful, and insightful book which tackles the struggle of sexual purity that all christian men go through. I reccomend this book for any man that is looking for help to win the battle, that is waged against believers by this powerful, media driven, sex mad culture we live in.

just started reading, 3 chapters and noticed a change in my behaivor already, seems to simple to be of much help, but the book plus the scriptures seem to be very good in changing some of my bad habits. I feel that God's will for my life is more important than keeping habits that do not glorify God. I am going on with the study and being open to God's Holy Spirit. God is powerful enought to save mankind, create the universe, and I think he can change me in ways I can never dream of. Get the Book and workbook, trust in God and his WORD and He will make you more like his Son. I'll write more when I read more! Blessings! Monty

I had just turned my life over to God and I realized I like many men was sinning sexually.
My wife was even uncomfortable with my desires at times. So I saw this book and bought it; honestly it has really changed my life. I was doing things that due to society I thought was okay but after reading a few chapters I realized it wasn't okay. I recommend this book to every man especially if they are getting married. If my wife and I ever have a son I am going to give it to him so that he won't walk down the same path as me.

It was kind of an epiphany when I read this book. I had already, from my own study and mind, decided that some issues discussed here were a problem with my marriage. I had already tried to take some of the steps. Then when I read the book, it all made so much sense. The only real argument my wife have ever had has been over sex. I realized that I could only change myself. I have taken the initiative to be "the master of my domain". Yes, it's hard. Yes, there will be stumbling. But I truly believe this book will change my life and yours. I can tell you that my relationship with my wife has improved, especially in the bedroom. Every Christian man needs to know this and practice it. IT IS WORTH IT!

Tell us a little about yourself. I am the founder of New Life Clinics and Women of
Faith. I host a daily live radio program called
New Life Live. I have written 40 books but Every
Man's Battle is having the greatest impact.
What was your motivation behind this project? I wanted to help set men free, honor women and
heal marriaages.
What do you hope folks will gain from this project? Sexual integrity and sexual purity.
Who are your influences, sources of inspiration or favorite authors / artists? I love CS Lewis for reading. I could listen to
Chuck Swindoll preach until the second coming.
His sister Luci is as good. I am greatly
influenced by the wisdom of the Women of Faith
speakers.
Anything else you'd like readers / listeners to know: One of my greatest joys is being a husband to
Sandy and a father to my darling daughter
Madeline. These are wonderful females and we have
a great life in Laguna Beach with our three dogs
and God watching over us.
This book is the greatest book I have been a part
of. Marriages are being healed and I am thankful
to God that Fred Stoeker and I were able to come
together on this book.
