I honestly don't have the right words to describe how great this book is. It is detailed and filled with true, honest and useful facts. I'd recommend it to anyone struggling with sexual sin and anyone helping someone struggling with sexual sin.

God bless you, Ashley Chestnut. Thank you to NetGalley for this beautiful book.

This is a book that has been needed for some time, and will be as useful for women who struggle with sexual sin as well as those who counsel them.

The beauty of the book is that it's not a bunch of advice on how to try harder. The author explains God's good plan for his people, and how what we do is a direct of result of what we believe. She explains why sexual sin is a result of bad understanding of not only who God is, but who we are in Christ, as well as a bondage that Jesus can break. Christ's relationship to the church, his bride, is delved into and explained. This understanding hopefully will empower women to realize how much they are cherished by their Savior and give them the freedom to feel that they themselves, and not the just the church in general, is of eternal consequence and beloved by him.

I also appreciated the section toward the end where the author provided tangible ways that a counselor/mentor can come alongside the woman who is struggling.

I highly recommend this book and I thank NetGalley for the copy of the book in exchange for a review.
