Most Christians are quick to link sexual integrity with holiness. Clean thoughts and actions are important to God and to us. Yet for many, maintaining a wholesome, biblical sexuality seems hopelessly beyond reach. Such people's deeply ingrained patterns of thought and behavior keep them stuck on a treadmill of sin, even as they long for a walk of purity. Faithful and True offers a path that leads beyond compulsive thoughts and behaviors toward sexual integrity and self-control. Sensitive to the shame of sexual addiction without minimizing its sinfulness, Dr. Mark Laaser: - traces the roots of sexual addiction in families and in culture - shows how sexual sin poisons the lives of pastors and laypeople alike - provides a complete 12-step program for treatment and recovery from sexual addiction. You may be the spouse, pastor, family member, or friend of someone with a sexual addiction. Of you yourself may struggle with urges you've not been able to overcome. Regardless, hope and help are at hand. Faithful and True steers you over the rocky but navigable road to understanding, wholeness, and holiness.

Mark Laaser lecturers nationally and internationally and consults with hospitals and treatment centers around the country. His first book, Faithful and True, was the first Christian book to address the issue of sexual addiction. He has since written six other books including Talking to Your Kids about Sex, and his most recent, The Pornography Trap (with Dr. Ralph Earle). Trained as a pastor at Princeton Theological seminary, he received his doctorate from the University of Iowa. He currently resides in Minnesota with his wife, Debra. They have three grown children: Sara, Jonathan, and Benjamin.
