When your husband struggles with pornography, your world is shattered. There are so many resources to help him, but what about you? Where can you go with your grief, insecurities, fear, and even anger? Jenny Solomon comes alongside hurting wives and gently encourages them to bring their pain to God, who is able to reclaim their marriage. She will help you to rest in God's love, while at the same time taking one brave step at a time to care for your family and yourself.
Jenny understands that when the heavy burden of sorrow weighs down your soul, it is helpful to lean hard on a few solid truths about who God is and how he is calling you to respond. One of the most important is that although you may feel lonely right now, you are not alone. In Reclaim Your Marriage: Grace for Wives Who Have Been Hurt by Pornography, you will learn how to draw close to the Lord as you address your own sorrows, questions, and temptations. The author will encourage you to find a Christian community where you can seek a listening ear and find close friends who will come alongside you and pray for you in this battle. Jenny not only knows the struggle you are facing but has experienced the power of the gospel to bring healing.
Fighting pornography is not something a couple can handle alone. This book and the companion resource for husbands written by Jenny's husband Curtis Solomon, Redeem Your Marriage: Hope for Husbands Who Hurt with Pornography, can be used to bring hope and grace into a seemingly impossible situation. These resources can be used in the context of mentoring, counseling, or accountability relationships to give biblical direction and hope in the midst of a difficult struggle.
Reclaim Your Marriage includes a foreword by Elyse Fitzpatrick.
"When I teach on human sexuality and its many perversions lust, pornography, masturbation, and more some students are clearly uncomfortable with the topics because they have been deeply wounded by others who struggle in those areas. How then do I reach into my students' lives and help them gain a measure of ease in discussing these hurts? Jenny Solomon's book, Reclaim Your Marriage, is an invitation to address such brokenness honestly and carefully with grace and truth. It is an ideal conversation starter for uncomfortable and hurtful areas."
