CONFRONTING PORN
A Comprehensive Guide for Christians
Struggling with Porn & Churches Wanting
to Help Them.
By Paula Hall
Care / Naked Truth. 177 pages. £16.99
ISBN 978 1 905 691 463

Pornography-use is a growing issue in our society and in our churches. We need to be better equipped.

So it’s always good to see a new book that’s serious about helping people change. Hall’s accessible and gentle words have many strengths. In seven intriguingly-designed chapters, she helps those who use pornography, and those who stand alongside them, to grasp the complexities of porn, its consequences, the nature of addiction, the difficulties associated with supporting someone who struggles, and the reality of hope. She takes seriously the physiological aspects of pornography-use that can all too easily get over-looked.
