John D. Street on the heart idolatries that lead even Christians into egregious sexual sin, and how lasting change comes by identifying the motivations underneath. Read more.
Enticed by rage, sensuality or pride, anyone can become caught up in previously unimaginable acts. Experienced biblical counselor John D. Street takes a hard look at the heart idolatries that lead even Christians to commit egregious sexual sin, and works back from the behavior to what is driving it.
His method is to bring lasting change by identifying the underlying motivations of the heart rather than by managing conduct, and the book is written out of years of actual counseling rather than theory. There is hope here: any sin can be forgiven, and Christ gives men and women the grace to mortify fleshly desires and to live humbly for him.
