Fatal Attractions: Why Sex Sins Are Worse Than Others

by Jack W. Hayford

Get practical, biblical definitions of what sexual sin is and why it is more damaging than other sins. Whether you want your perspectives on sexual purity validated or whether you are searching for healing from past sexual inequities, Fatal Attractions is the book for you. Pastor Hayford identifies sex sins as worse than other sins not because they are harder for God to forgive, but because they are more damaging at personal and social levels than other sins. It is not the act of sex itself but the flippancy of one-night stands, the viewing of pornography and the engaging of the mind in sexual fantasies that most drastically turn our sight from God. Join Pastor Hayford in this down-to-earth, up-front discussion on human sexuality. This is a chance to align your perspective with God's, seeing humanity and sexuality through biblical lenses.

Very good book that discusses the unintended effects of sex outside of marriage on the psyche, spirit, and future of persons who engage in it. A compassionate book.
