Pornography is powerful. Our contemporary culture as been pornified, and it shapes our assumptions about identity, sexuality, the value of women and the nature of relationships. Countless Christian men struggle with the addictive power of porn. But common spiritual approaches of more prayer and accounability groups are often of limited help.??In this book *Wired for Intimacy* neuroscientist and researcher William Struthers explains how pornography affects the male brain and what we can do about it. Because we are embodied beings, viewing pornography changes how the brain works, how we form memories and make attachments. By better understanding the biological realities of our sexual development, we can cultivate healthier sexual perspectives and interpersonal relationships. Struthers exposes false assumptions and casts a vision for a redeemed masculinity, showing how our sexual longings can actually propel us toward sanctification and holiness in our bodies.??With insights for both married and single men alike, this book offers hope for freedom from pornography.

    A road map for understanding

    Struthers brings his expertise in neural processes and psychology to the epidemic of porn addiction among young men. As a ministry worker who frequently counsels young men caught in porn addiction, I have found 'Wired for Intimacy' a valuable resource - as men understand the physiological processes that are 'hijacked' by porn use, there often begins to be greater clarity for steps towards recovery. \\r\\nThe depth into which he traces the cascading neurological processes can be a little dry to wade through for some readers. However, the insight into how neuroplasticity gives hope for the process of sanctification and recovery is incredibly valuable. \\r\\nI would highly recommend this book for those who pastor men caught in porn addiction, as well as for men wanting a grasp of the 'mechanics' that lead to feelings of being trapped, to augment and assist gospel-shaped efforts of change.
