Attraction is not a moral failing. It is what we do with it that decides everything.

Most people are given rules about sex and almost no understanding of it. They are left unprepared for the ordinary experience of being unexpectedly drawn to someone, or for a struggle that keeps returning however hard they pray.

These two books take that seriously, name it plainly, and show the way through.

What the collection contains

• The Dynamics of Sex: two ordinary people, their stories told in full. Both cases are then taken apart: what drew them in, why their own defences failed, and exactly what each could have done differently.

• The Power of Sex: why the sex drive is God-given and good, what sexual lust does when it breaks loose, and how to overcome both its ordinary and its compulsive forms.

Read them in this order: first, how people are drawn in; then, how to get free and stay free.

Who it is for

Married and engaged couples, single adults, widows and widowers, pastors and counsellors, and anyone who has been surprised by their own reaction to another person.
