THE
CHALLENGE FACING EVERY MAN
Guests:
Stephen Arterburn, Fred Stoeker and Shannon
Ethridge
Our
guests believe that today, most men do not have a clear biblical picture of
what healthy sex is. From their own personal experience, Fred Stoeker, Shannon
Ethridge and Steven Arterburn talk candidly about fully integrating their
sexuality with their Christian walk, and the importance of sexual purity for
young men before marriage. Sadly, many young men think they can sow their wild
oats now and such behavior won't affect their marriage later.
Arterburn, Stoeker and Ethridge also address the challenge to married men. Fred
Stoeker said, “As a married man, by worldly standards, I was doing great. But
by God's standard of sexual purity, I wasn't even close to living His vision for
marriage. Even though I wasn't involved in physical affairs, my eyes scoped out
women, and my mind fantasized using them until I had to masturbate to relieve
the tension. My wife couldn't compete with the women in my mind. It soon became
clear to me that I'd stopped far short of holiness.”
Fred and Steve talk about how all men are vulnerable to sexual temptation
through their eyes, and how their mind can fantasize on what their eyes see.
But they also explain how a man can train his eyes to bounce away from sexual
images, and how it is possible to capture and control every thought for Christ.
Those who are addicted and enslaved to pornography, masturbation, or sleeping
around, can find freedom by deciding to act on the information presented in
these programs.

 THE
CHALLENGE FACING EVERY WOMAN
Guests:
Stephen Arterburn, Fred Stoeker and Shannon
Ethridge
In
this series, Shannon Etheridge said, “If anyone had asked me when I was 12 if I
wanted to remain a virgin until marriage, I would have said, ‘of course I do.’
At
13, I would've said, ‘I think so.’
By
14, I would've replied, ‘maybe.’
At
age 15, my response would have been, ‘I don't see how that is possible.’”
Why
is this happening? It's because of the constant message permeating our culture
from secular music to movies, from the Internet to television programs, from
books and teen magazines to advertisements and commercials. It is even taught
in our schools.
Shannon Ethridge along with Steven Arterburn and Fred Stoeker examine a woman’s
challenge for sexual purity. Men and women struggle in different ways when it
comes to sexual integrity. While a man's battle begins with what he takes in
through his eyes, a woman's begins with her heart and her thoughts. Because God
made women to be emotionally and mentally stimulated, they must closely guard
their hearts and minds as well as their bodies if they want to experience God's
plan for sexual and emotional fulfillment. Men give love to get sex and women
give sex to get love.
The
goal of
The Challenge Facing Every Woman
is to say, whether you are sexually pure, hanging on to your virginity by a
thread, or having sex regularly, you can maintain and/or reclaim your sexual
integrity not just in your youth, but throughout your whole life. In our series,
Shannon explains how young women can successfully cope with the pressures and
battles they face and insure that their marriage will be all that God, and they,
want it to be.

From the television to the
internet, print media to videos, men are constantly faced with the assault of
sensual images. It is impossible to avoid such temptations...but,
thankfully, not impossible to rise above them.
Shattering the perception
that men are unable to control their thought lives and roving eyes, Every
Man's Battle shares the stories of dozens who have escaped the trap of
sexual immorality and presents a practical, detailed plan for any man who
desires sexual purity -- perfect for men who have fallen in the past, those who
want to remain strong today, and all who want to overcome temptation in the
future.
When does an affair begin?
Not with the first forbidden touch...but with the first forbidden thought.
Unexpectedly, you find yourself enjoying a powerful emotional bond with another
man. You feel like you matter to someone again. And the door you
thought was locked so firmly -- the door to sexual infidelity -- is suddenly
ajar.
The only way you as a woman
can survive the intense struggle for sexual integrity is by guarding not just
your body, but your mind and heart as well. Every Woman's Battle
can help you learn to do that. Using real-life stories and examples from
her own struggle, Shannon Ethridge helps women like you -- whether married,
engaged, or planning to marry someday.
In this world you're
surrounded by sexual images that open the door to temptation. They're
everywhere -- on TV, billboards, magazines, music, the Internet -- and so easy
to access that it sometimes feels impossible to escape their clutches. Yet
God expects His children to be sexually pure.
So how can you survive the
relentless battle against temptation? Here's powerful ammunition.
Stephen Arterburn and Fred
Stoeker, the authors of the hard-hitting best seller Every Man's Battle,
now focus on the temptations young single Christian men like you face every day
-- and they offer workable, biblical strategies for achieving sexual purity.
Every Young Man's Battle
will show you how to train your eyes and your mind, how to clean up your thought
life, and how to develop a realistic battle plan for remaining pure in today's
sexually soaked culture. As a result, you'll experience hope -- real hope
-- for living a strong, pure life God's way.
The world you live in
promotes sex as the answer to just about everything. The pressure to go
along with the crowd is greater than ever before, and it's easy to compromise in
little ways that are a lot more harmful than they seem. You and your
friends may become caught up in destructive relationships or sexual activities
without even knowing how you got there. You just want to be normal -- to
fit in, to be like, to look attractive to the opposite sex. But are you
paying too high a price?
Whether you have so far
protected yourself emotionally and sexually, feel that you've been robbed of
your purity, or have given in to temptation in some way, this book can help you
achieve or reclaim sexual integrity. It can also guide you through the
temptations and pressures of young adulthood while demonstrating how you can
live your life to the fullest --without regrets.
