Every Heart Restored

This is a fabulous book for women who have lived with a husband who is into pornography at any level. It helps you understand your feelings, gives you hope for healing, and helps you communicate. I really appreciate the fact that it gives both male and female input.

A very helpful guide.

If you are a woman who's been hurt by your husband's sexual sin- this is the guide for you. I have been enlightened to many different things that I never thought of before. It is a wonderful, biblically based, book that will lead you to healing within yourself and your marriage. A must read! Be sure to order "Every Man's Battle" for your husband, and both study guides, as well. This combonation will set you on the path of healing and becoming the souple God intended you to become!

Realistic and helpful steps to restoration

Understanding why your spouse was stupid enough to become entangled in the porno web is one thing; forgiving him and restoring your relationship is quite another. This book lays it all bare and gives practical counsel that, if followed, will help a woman wanting to accomplish that end. Some reviewers of this book expressed disappointment with the focus on pornography and masterbation, but I bought it anyway. Adultery begins in the mind. With easy access to internet pornography, thoughts are turned into images. Sexual obsessions have mental, spiritual, and emotional ramifications. Each has to be acknowledged and addressed. This means going back to where it begins. Cut off a weed at its roots and it will die. This is a good book for women who are truly ready to forgive.

I found this book most helpful

Unlike some of the other reviews, I found this book most helpful. I liked that it is written to the Christian wife of a Christian husband. While my situation may not be exactly the same as the examples in the book there are similarities and I was able to figure out how I needed to respond to the information I recently learned. Before reading the book I knew I wanted something that would support my decision to work this out. I decided to read through it once and then I decided to "work" through it. Taking what I read and applying it to my situation, personality and marriage. I found it necessary to pray my way through this process and seek God's will and knowledge so that it would not be "about me" as much as it would be about our marriage and our future together. I would recommend this book. I agree it does not address if the woman has been sexually wounded or is dealing with her own sexual sin but I really don't think that was the intent of the authors.
