Lord, Hold Me Up - Working Through the Affects of Betrayal-Lust-Pornography (Hardcover)

When Doris Hopewell discovered that her husband was addicted to pornography, she felt as though her entire marriage had been built on lies. Shattered by his betrayal, she was too humiliated to share the information with anyone. Even after he joined a support group for men with sexual addictions and she began attending her own recovery group, it was several weeks before she could tell her fellow members why she was there.

Maybe your husband has had an affair. Maybe he's been secretly viewing pornography. Maybe you feel like you won't ever be able to trust him again. Maybe you don't even want to trust him again. Whatever you're feeling, you are not alone.

Hopewell shares excerpts from her journal, starting on the day she learned of her husband's addiction-entries that became an intimate conversation with God. You'll see how God responded to her prayers, interwoven with the wisdom she gathered through her participation in the recovery group.

Healing didn't come easily or quickly for this couple, and to say that Hopewell's journey had its ups and downs is an understatement. Yet the insights she gained into herself and the remarkable transformation in her relationship with God will encourage you during your own dark hours. She has included a special section for men, with the hope that it will open the doors of communication between husbands and wives. Let her story of God's amazing power help you on the road to healing.
