Description
Men know all about their need for sexual purity. What they want is a plan that will enable them to attain it. In the midst of a culture that shouts "Sex!" from every corner, men need a friend to talk honestly about how to master lust and achieve control over this crucial area of their lives.Bill Perkins details a proven biblical strategy for sexual integrity. He shows men how to achieve a purity that will flow from their relationship with God and strengthen their self-respect, the sanctity of their marriage, and the security of their families. Perkins unfolds a three-part plan that will lead men to victory.Updated to address current needs and cultural trends, When Good Men Are Tempted includes the latest information on Internet pornography. It also features "Take Action" strategic steps and questions suitable for individual reflection or discussion in small groups.
