I’ve seen many clients find healing through the corrective messages in this book. There were even misbeliefs and misconceptions I grew up believing that made me stop in my tracks when reading. ⁣
Sheila, Rebecca, & Joanna’s research of over 20,000 women backs up their theory that the evangelical church has, with no intention to harm, spread some harmful messages about sexuality over time. Especially in best-selling Christian books.
⁣The Great Sex Rescue highlights and refutes harmful messages while underscoring a healthy, sacred, biblical sexuality. ⁣I couldn’t recommend this book more! ⁣

From the first betrayal in this world’s history to Jesus’s temptations in the wilderness, this book is a sure spiritual guide to understand betrayal, temptations, and addictions.

Jesus has been through it as an example to lead you through it! You too can claim His victory!

As a trauma-informed therapist, these are books I cannot support or endorse in good conscience.

Many of these books:

• are not edifying in seeking a healthy intimacy

• overlook accountability necessary in abuse recovery

• dismiss the power of sanctification in overcoming addictions and abuse

• lack a trauma-model perspective

Numerous clients have reported damaging and harmful effects in response to these books and in some cases have reported their abusive circumstances worsened upon reading them.

Here are some books listed below that we DO NOT recommend reading:

Discover the truths, wisdom, and grace you need to spark change in your relationship, set boundaries, and experience healing.” ~ Amazon
