Foreplay: Sexual Healing for Spiritual Wholeness

by Jamal Harrison Bryant

"Foreplay" is an adaptation from a series that was preached by Bryant at one of the most powerful places on the planet -- which happens to be the church he's blessed enough to pastor -- Empowerment Temple A.M.E. in Baltimore, Maryland. It was after this series that his ministry really began to take off and skyrocket giving Bryant a clear indication that there were many who knew they were spiritually out of sync and needed a relational, psychological and emotional adjustment. In Byrant’s words "Foreplay" is a testament to his spiritual development and deliverance. In this manual, Bryant candidly describes the illicit spirit of fornication which runs rampant in many congregations and the fact that adultery seems to be the norm around the country. He also tackles delicate issues within the church sexual abuse, teenage pregnancy, absent fathers and more. In short, Bryant discerns that sexuality amongst the saved isn’t a habit, but is a spirit that must be dealt with and destroyed or a whole generation could very easily be lost from the Kingdom. In the powerful words of Bryant "sexuality remains an area where we continue to put band aids when what’s really required is open heart surgery."
