Healing Choice Blog Tour

Welcome to the Healing Choice blog tour!

With a busy summer schedule piling up on me, I have to say I haven't had a chance to finish the book yet. So, a review is forthcoming! I also have one copy of the book to give away (I am keeping one, and I'm giving one to my sister and brother-in-law; he is working toward his counseling license). Please comment for a chance to win this book.

With the increasing commonality of pornography addiction as well as non-gentlemanly "gentlemen's clubs" cropping up everywhere, it's no wonder our husbands have trouble with purity. Women can feel betrayed and violated, and rightly so, but then what do we do? This book offers help and hope.

More about the book:

Summary:

In the wake of betrayed intimacy, you may feel nauseated, angry, humiliated, desperate. Why am I not enough for him? Can our marriage be saved—and do I even want to try? Will this unbearable ache ever go away?

Amid the devastation that follows a spouse’s sexual disloyalty, you need to know that you are not alone. God walks alongside you, offering comfort and a promise to transform the pain of the present into hope for the future. In addition, there is a community of women who know firsthand the agony caused by a husband’s sexual compromises and who offer the compassion, strength, and biblical wisdom you need to make healthy decisions for yourself and your family.

The Healing Choice reveals the hope-filled stories of two such women, authors Brenda Stoeker and Susan Allen, who draw on their own experiences and those of many others to offer step-by-step advice for rediscovering intimacy with God and finding the support you need to move toward genuine spiritual and emotional restoration.

Their down-to-earth insights light the path toward help and healing for every woman who longs to move beyond the pain of broken trust and experience God’s promise of hope.

You can order the book on Amazon.com.

Remember, leave a comment if you're interested. I think I'll choose the winner Friday morning after work; if that changes I'll edit this post.
