Winning the War on Sexual Temptation One Victory at a Time

by Stephen Arterburn, Fred Stoeker, Mike Yorkey

the challenge every man faces… the fight every man can win

WORKBOOK INCLUDED

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.

Male sexual purity is not only critical to sexual oneness, it is an essential component of spiritual and emotional wholeness. Husbands who desire to achieve true intimacy in marriage will appreciate Every Man’s Battle, which provides a practical, detailed plan for pursuing sexual integrity, one of the crucial elements in winning the heart of a woman.

Includes a special section for women, designed to help them understand and support the men they love.

Note from author Fred Stoeker

Every Man’s Battle is for both men and women. As a man, have you ever said in frustration, “I just can’t get free of this sexual sin! Since I’m a man, I guess I’m just doomed to live this way.” Or, if a woman, have you ever asked, “Why is it that my husband seems to think about sex so much more than I do?” Or, “If sex is so natural, why is it that I’ve been married 15 years and still have no real sexual intimacy with my husband?”

Steven Arterburn and I have written this book to open the understanding of both men and women to their created differences, and how these differences impact their lives sexually. This book was written as a weapon against male sexual impurity. When I personally fought this battle, there were no books to be found on the topic. Even now, there are few books in the Christian arena on sexual impurity, and those that exist generally have little more than a single chapter devoted to “getting free”. Every Man’s Battle devotes at least 7 chapters to the practical details necessary for total and lasting victory. [more] »
