About this episode

It’s estimated that 60-72 percent of men in the Church are sex addicts. And 70% of wives of sex addicts experience some symptoms of PTSD.* People are looking for hope and healing. But many of them are trapped in a cycle that never resolves in recovery. Best-selling author and sexual theology educator Dannah Gresh and her husband Bob say they have known that harrowing pattern, but they’re stepping out to tell a story of hope.

Gresh demonstrates how to forgive, live with joy, and hold your head high while you participate in His redemption story for your husband. You may feel like your story is over, but no one writes better—or happier—endings than Jesus.
