I like how social media makes it so easy to get connected to new people, especially those who are working toward the same goals!  A few days ago, I was introduced, by way of Twitter, to Shelley Hitz. After we contacted each other, Shelley told me about her new book and asked if I could read it and post a review on my blog. I'm happy to support a fellow sister who has struggled with the same issues I have and is striving to help other women with their struggles, too. 


Shelley and S'ambrosia have done an excellent job. By sharing personal stories in a delicate but transparent fashion, readers see they are not alone in this addiction. But the most important thing A Christian Woman's Guide to Breaking Free from Pornography is exactly what it's title says... a guide that explains the problem of pornography addiction and then takes us step by step to the freedom found only in Jesus Chris. 

These ladies have done their homework and I know because I've read nearly everything they reference. Shelley and S'ambrosia have filled this book with an incredible amount of research material explaining scientifically how harmful pornography is and what it does to our brain. But they don't stop there, they lovingly give us answers to our pain and struggle.

If you or someone you know struggles with pornography, please don't hesitate to get this book. In fact, every woman should read it, because chances are a woman you know is addicted to pornography. I'm excited to find Shelley Hitz and her ministry and am proud to partner with her in the fight against pornography and helping women who have been affected by it.
