From One Addict to Another is the brave retelling of one man's experience with sexual addiction. The author, who feels called by God to share his personal story in order to help other sex addicts as well as strengthen his own recovery, describes a childhood of pain and loneliness that left him aching for wholeness; his awakening sexuality and the false promises of fulfillment it offered; and his descent into a life of lies and compulsive, out-of-control behavior that nearly destroyed his marriage and life. When the consequences of his altered reality begin to unfold, Aungst attempts to find help, if only to appease his loved ones as first. Then, guided by supportive friends and community, he encounters Jesus and begins the long and arduous climb out of this destructive way of life and toward true recovery. He begins healing and building a life centered around a relationship with God-a life where he finally finds the love to fill the void in his soul. Includes concrete advice and tips for other men struggling with sex addiction from someone who has been there himself. This is a compelling story of pain and despair, hope and surrender-a must-read for anyone dealing with the devastation of sexual addiction. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

Dann Aungst is a creative, pioneering, and courageous human being. Those struggling with addiction have an advantage over everyone else. They recognize their need and are in a position to receive the fullness of grace.
Countless people struggle with addictions. Some suffer in silence as they try to hide their failures from the world. Others have spiraled out of control and cannot keep their lives together. Most advice on dealing with addictions provides little more than coping mechanisms, but do little to change the inner life of a person. Yet God has provided a way. People may abandon you, religion may have failed you, but God’s mercies cannot fail.
In the midst of our feelings of failure, we often think that God is angry and rejecting us. Nothing could be farther from the truth. God delights in showing His power in the lives of those who cannot rise above their weaknesses. Rather than rejecting us, God is waiting in the pit of despair with an outstretched arm. He rescues the captives and heals the broken hearted.
His book is changing the lives of thousands! If you are a sex addict or spouse, family member, friend, etc. of a sex addict. READ this book!! You will not be disappointed at all!! This book is truly God sent and out of the very pain has come the great ministry that will make a huge impact. Author Aungst has a great resource available that will also bless you.
I hope it helps other people too, and may God bless the Author who helped from all that distance by taking the time to write this important book. (
