Finally Free: Fighting for Purity with the Power of Grace
Related Media
Publisher's Description
If you have struggled personally against the powerful draw of pornography, or if you have ever tried to help someone fighting this battle, you know how hard it is to break free. But real freedom isn't found by trying harder to change. Nor is it found in a particular method or program. Only Jesus Christ has the power to free people from the enslaving power of pornography.
In Finally Free, Dr. Heath Lambert, a leader in the biblical counseling movement, lays out eight gospel-centered strategies for overcoming the deceitful lure of pornography. Each chapter clearly demonstrates how the gospel applies to this particular battle and how Jesus can move readers from a life of struggle to a life of purity. If you or someone you care about is fighting this battle, there is good news: No matter how intense or long-standing the struggle, Jesus Christ can, will, and does set people free from the power of pornography.
Includes a Foreword by Joshua Harris

The theological message presented in these pages will not only overcome even the strongest pornography addiction; it will also seep into our entire spiritual life, renewing and invigorating us, turning victims into conquerors and captives into liberators.”
Owen Strachan

“Heath Lambert has biblically and practically addressed two devastating problems: pornography and our ineffective response to it within the church. HIs wise counsel is biblical because it begins and ends with God's grace, and it is practical because it provides clear direction on how to receive and grow in that grace. Finally Free is not just for individual struggling with porn; it is for everyone seeking to follow Jesus and lead others to him int he twenty-first century.”
Noel Bouch

“Heath Lambert writes from his heart of love for God and love for others. The Scriptures he includes are alive and powerful. HIs applications are insightful and practical. Finally Free is exceptionally well written and clear. I highly recommend this book to anyone struggling with pornography. There is truly hope, grace, and mercy to be finally free.”
Martha Peace
Biblical Counselor; author, The Excellent Wife
“Finally Free is not the typical man-centered self-help book that offers the reader shallow teachings and a hopeless future. Instead, Heath Lambert systematically builds his case for freedom on the tried-and-true solutions provided by God's Word. From the opening pages until the final chapter, he persistently points the reader to Jesus Christ as the person's Deliverer and Solution. I highly recommend this book.”
Steve Gallagher
Founder, Pure Life Ministries; author, At the Altar of Sexual Idolatry
“This book is richly biblical, soundly Christian, and centered in the gospel. Christians should read it and quickly pass it to others. It will be of enormous help to pastors, youth ministers, college ministers, and the Christians of all ages struggling against the tide of our pornographic age.”
R. Albert Mohler Jr.

“Ive read just about every Christian book on the topic of pornography. Finally Free is now the number one book I will recommend to pastors, counselors, strugglers, and those who love them.”
