About this listen

Discover how the barrier built by porn addiction can become a bridge to abundant life.

What if lust for porn is really a search for true passion?

In a world where there are 68 million searches for pornography every day and where over 70 percent of Christian men report viewing porn in the last year, it's no surprise that more and more men struggle with an addiction to this false fantasy. Common wisdom says if they just had more willpower or more faith, their fight would be over. Is the answer really that simple?

According to the counselor and ministry leader Michael John Cusick, the answer is no—but the big truth may be much more freeing. Backed by scripture, Cusick uses examples from his own life and from his twenty years of counseling experience to show us how the pursuit of empty pleasure is really a search for our heart's deepest desire—and the real key to to resistance is discovering and embracing the joy we truly want.

Cusick's insights help readers understand

  • How porn struggles begin
  • What to do to prevent those struggles
  • How to overcome the compulsion once it begins

"Every man who knocks on the door of a brothel is knocking for God." – G. K.

I cannot praise this book enough. The author is so open and honest; whatever you’re struggling with in sexual temptations and sin, he’s been there and done a lot more. Unlike most of modern society, he doesn’t judge sexual immorality and a reason to judge and condemn, but rather seeks to go deeper to understand why it’s happening. He hits the nail on the head and sets you on the road to recovery. I suspect it’ll be a long journey, but this is definitely a fantastic starting point. Long May his ministry continue. And no, I’m not the author or one of his friends, and just to prove it: what do you call one dog locked in a cage? A Shit-Zu. The author or his friends wouldn’t want to sully his page with terrible jokes! Haha. But seriously, if you want to quit but keep failing every time to try to walk away, this is the first step to reuniting with God’s image which you were made to be.
