You long to be free but ... It goes without saying that today we're battling an epidemic of pornography. Following his personal online survey and extensive research, Tim Chester has outlined the extent of the problem in society and the church. More importantly, he focuses on the best strategies to beat it, by far the most significant of which is to capture a better vision of Christ’s glory and greatness, feeding our minds on Christ. Such a vision eclipses all lesser pleasures.

Pornography has reached epidemic proportions. And in God's eyes porn is ugly. 'Unbearably ugly,' says Tim Chester, 'but for the grace of God.'

In the New Testament Paul warns, 'Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness but rather expose them.' Tim Chester points the reader to something infinitely better, something that captivates without causing shame, remorse or embarrassment: the glory and beauty of Christ. We are made to be satisfied with God alone, and told to avoid the sin that hinders our relationship with him.

Tim exposes the lies and deceptions of porn, inviting us to be fully free, and showing positively and practically how this can be possible in daily life.

We can be captured by a better vision.
