Product Description
In this world you#8217;re surrounded by sexual images that open the door to temptation. They#8217;re everywhere#8211;on TV, billboards, magazines, music, the internet#8211;and so easy to access that it sometimes feels impossible to escape their clutches. Yet God expects his children to be sexually pure. So how can you survive the relentless battle against temptation? Here#8217;s powerful ammunition. brbrSteve Arterburn and Fred Stoeker, the authors of the hard-hitting best-selleri Every Man#8217;s Battle,/i now focus on the temptations young single Christian men like you face every day#8211;and they offer workable, biblical strategies for achieving sexual purity.brbrThe authors examine the standard of Ephesians 5:3#8211;#8220;there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality#8221;#8211;in a positive and sensitive light. And they explain how an authentic, vibrant relationship with Jesus Christ is the key to victory over temptation. iEvery Young Man#8217;s Battle /iwill show you how to train your eyes and your mind, how to clean up your thought life, and how to develop a realistic battle plan for remaining pure in today#8217;s sexually soaked culture. As a result, you#8217;ll experience hope#8211;real hope#8211;for living a strong, pure life God#8217;s way

1 out of 5 stars Uncritical and unscientific   July 19, 2008
 3 out of 11 found this review helpful

The authors rely on little more than personal anecdotal experience. Their personal stories take too much space and cut out room for practical advice. They rely little on what mainstream sexology has to say becuase of their unquestioned committment to the sinfulness of "even a hint" of lust after a woman--based largely on an uncritical, literal reading of Matthew 5:28. Their reasoning embodies a perfect example of slippery-slope reasoning that I will use in the future when I teach critical thinking classes: 'if it goes that far, it'll end up going quite a bit farther.' The fact that there is no index helps the case for saying that this book is more like a novel about the consequences of sexual repression on one's emotional well-being and self-control, and a documentary of the bad advice that comes from it, than a helpful guide for young men trying to understand how to handle their bodily needs.

I ordered Every Young Mans Battle for my 16 year old grandson. It came promptly and in a-1 condition. He is still in the process of reading it and finds it very helpful.


5 out of 5 stars Just what every male needs to read   February 13, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I finally bought this book after reading it through twice after I borrowed if from a friend. This book really gets to the heart of the problem and offers techniques and solutions for beating this up hill battle. I can't wait to finish it so I can read it again. It's nice to know that there are other people with the same problem. I hope that you buy this book, even if your not a 'young man' anymore.
