The Pornography Trap: Setting Pastors and Laypersons Free from Sexual Addiction

Maybe he's a board member or a deacon. Maybe he's the choir director. Maybe he's teaching Sunday school or passing the offering plate. Pastor...maybe it's you. How are you dealing with the sexual sin epidemic that is sweeping across churches today via the Internet and other venues? According to a Leadership Journal survey, almost two-thirds of all pastors struggle with Internet pornography. Men everywhere are living in bondage and fear of exposure. If you are flirting with this devastating addiction, or if you're counseling others who have already crossed the line, Ralph Earle and Mark Laaser help you understand the core issues related to sexual sin and give insight into developing a biblical view of healthy sexuality. In The Pornography Trap, you'll find the help you have prayed for.

Dr. Mark Laaser has ministered to hundreds of sex addicts and their families, consulted with numerous churches, developed treatement programs for a variety of hospitals, and has conducted workshops and seminars worldwide. His first book, Healing the Wounds of Sexual Addiction, 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 The Pornography Trap. Dr. Laaser holds a PhD in Religion and Psychology from the University of Iowa, a Master of Divinity from Princeton Theological Seminary, and a Bachelor’s degree in Religion and Philosophy from Augustana College in Rock Island, Illinois. He is currently an adjunct faculty member of Denver Theological Seminary, Fuller Seminary, and the Psychological Studies Institute. Dr. Ralph H. Earle, Jr. is an internationally-known speaker and author on the topic of sexual addiction. He currently serves as director Psychological Counseling Services, Ltd.
