It talks about the prevalence of porn in our culture and how it affects us. Us as a church, as men, as women, as employers, as parents. With even famous Christian leaders like Ravi Zaccharias falling captive to sexual sins, it is important for each one of us to be on guard to the pressures around us and what we need to do to stay healthy.

It is a stark reminder that our society is hooked on porn. What God intended for creating intimacy between a husband and wife, porn is the opposite and tears apart intimacy. It creates a dark void and many continue down the path because it’s so hard to escape. I like the book’s authenticity and practical step by step approach. It touches on a lot of real life stories of people that are in the midst of their issues, stories of failure, and stories of success. I think this is a helpful resource for any ministry leader as this is a pointed arrow into this subject even though it was published in 2010. I would recommend this for any guy or guys group (even as young as high school) because porn affects more guys statistically but the book is written to a wider audience.
