Unending Hope for the Exhausted Addict (2008)
A restlessness writhes deep within the soul. Whether enslaved to raging
masters like drugs or alcohol or hidden destroyers like internet porn or
food obsessions, the exhausted addict knows the relentless torture of
striving to break free only to fail time after time. How to end this mad
rush toward destruction?
With compelling illustrations and down-to-earth language, Alan
Lester shares compassionate, candid, and biblical strategies to help
addicts embrace the Savior's life-renewing grace and hurl aside the
chains of destruction.
