There are many levels of unhealthy sexual behavior and its important to be able to make those distinctions and know where you're at or where the person you are counseling is. The roots of sexual immorality are rarely ever about sex. This book unpacks the concepts of that statement. It's crucial to be able to understand the truth from a Godly and Biblical perspective so that true healing can happen.
