In Search of Recovery Workbook: A Christian Man's Guide

by Paul Becker

This companion workbook to In Search of Recovery helps men learn how to achieve a high level of commitment to change their behavior and thinking. The exercises are structured for use in either independent counseling or group therapy, offering men useful insights on how to move out of isolation into a more fulfilling life.

Exercises are geared at helping men examine their most personal issues,

• The nature and origin of sex addiction

• How to cultivate self-awareness and an improve attitude

Ultimately, readers will discover the satisfaction that comes from improved relationships with their spouses, children, other men, and God.

Step-by-step guidance is offered here on ending the destructive thinking and habits that fuel sex addiction. Readers will find plenty of room for writing and journaling with insightful advice on living the best life possible.
