Sexuality
	An Affair of the Mind: One Woman's Courageous Battle to Salvage Her Family from the Devastation of Pornography By Laurie Hall It began with an R-rated movie and turned into far more than mere fascination with "adult" magazines. Though the changes were subtle at first, right before her eyes, Laurie Hall watched her husband become a complete stranger. Opening her heart and baring her soul, she reveals porn's subversive side, comforting women in similar situations with encouragement, a plan of action.
	The Courage to Heal: A Guide for Women Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse By Ellen Bass, Laura Davis The classic and definitive self-help guide for women survivors of sexual abuse, The Courage To Heal is a tool for recovery that works. This is also the book often cited by those who challenge the credibility of incest survivors. Some survivors of childhood abuse recover memories of these traumatic early experiences years after the original events, and it is these recovered memories that are said to be false memories, implanted in the allegedly impressionable minds of survivors. The authors' commitment to survivors is clear throughout the book, beginning with the book's endorsements, which come not from therapists, but from anonymous survivors. This is a comprehensive, supportive, carefully worded and often passionate book, as helpful for those who are the partners, friends or family of survivors, as for survivors themselves. Also available: The Courage to Heal Workbook : For Women and Men Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse

	Sex and the Single Person: Dealing Honestly With the Need for Intimacy By Robert G. Demoss, Jr. Sexual purity is an incredible gift from God—in spite of what you might hear to the contrary," says DeMoss. He clarifies the reality of living a chaste life with the fantasy provided by the entertainment media. DeMoss identifies six stages of the "Single Cycle": contentment, restlessness, depression, poor choices, intense guilt, and a return to contentment." He also offers four ways to "short-circuit" the negative aspects of the cycle and help singles understand sex and intimacy. Demoss exhorts singles not to make marriage and sex their objective, but rather to become a godly lover as Christ did. "If we’re to become more Christlike, we’ll need to learn that generosity and serving others is at the heart of the matter," concludes DeMoss in Sex & the Single Person. "In doing, we’ll best prepare ourselves for life whether we remain single or married."
	An Undivided Heart: Making Sense of Celibate Chastity By Sean D. Sammon From the perspective of psychology, the author examines human sexuality and celibate chastity over the course of a lifetime. He also discusses identity, intimacy and its obstacles, relationships between men and women, some fundamental concepts of human sexuality including sexual orientation, as well as the spiritual foundation of celibate chastity. And he does so in order to help men and women who have embraced a life of celibate chastity to understand better this way of being a sexual person. The book, therefore, has a wider audience than priests and men and women religious. Many Catholic and Protestant lay people, living the single life, feel called to just such a lifestyle. The ideas presented in this book will enrich their reflection on this fundamental dimension of their life and will add a significant new perspective to today's ongoing conversation about this topic.

Complete with discussion questions, this book will take Christian men to a new level of purity.
