All Pleasures Fall into Two Categories:

All pleasures are not the same. One Bible teacher said that all types of pleasures fall into two categories: The one category, we pay after we receive pleasure and the other category, we pay before we receive pleasure.

Why? Because there is no pleasure without the pleasure us costing something!

The pleasure we get from sin falls into the category where we need to pay after we enjoy the pleasure.

The pleasure in Continue reading All Pleasures Fall into Two Categories:

His Banner Over Me

Well, I missed the American Christmas and New Year; but above all, I missed my love, my Berhan and my lovely kids.

Of course, I also missed each and every one of you, my Facebook fans!

Yes, I’m in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. I don’t want to talk about Addis’ gorgeous weather because I don’t want to hurt some people who are, as we speak, dealing with snow.

Ethiopia might be the poorest country in the world, there is Continue reading His Banner Over Me

Marital Sexual Intimacy After Porn

A4P Guest: My husband and I are writing this to you together. After four years of marriage, our sexual intimacy got cold and we both began complaining about it. Then one day I came across a porn site and told my husband about it. So, we invited porn to our bedroom and after that for few months, we thought we got back our sexual pleasures we lost through the years. But as you already said it on most of your articles, the porn soon destroyed everything we had. We went for counseling because we couldn’t get along anymore. We didn’t tell to the counselor about the porn because we were very scared. The counselor tried Continue reading Marital Sexual Intimacy After Porn

Porn And A Man

A4P Guest: What is the one thing that pulls a man in porn addiction?

A4P: The woman in porn doesn’t demand and ask anything from the man. She is willing to give him anything he asks and more. She takes nothing from him but gives him everything. She doesn’t ask him to love and care for her. All she is asking him is to give her his soul. That is all!

A4P Guest: But why doesn’t the man then be happy with porn and live quietly? Why does he seek help to stop viewing porn? Continue reading Porn And A Man

“Breaking Free”

For those of you who are voracious readers, here is a book to devour: Breaking Free – Understanding Sexual Addiction & the Healing Power of Jesus!

Sure, it is written for men and I am not a man but I didn’t see on the cover that says, “Women are not allowed to read it!” So, I read it like nobody’s business and I love it!

If you want to get a glimpse of what sexual addiction is, this is the book. If you want to break free from that long standing masturbation and porn addiction, frequent visit to prostitutes or strip club, or anything similar, this is the book to read.  Continue reading “Breaking Free”
