About the Book

If you are a Christian man who struggles with pornography, you don't need yet another men's Bible study, 12-step recovery program, or book telling you that you are a powerless addict who uses porn as your drug of choice because you were wounded as a child.

Why not?

Because what you need isn't recovery-it's repentance. Looking at porn is sin. Period. When you lust after a woman, you commit adultery with her. What you need is a daily, biblical kick in the pants because the remedy you seek has already been published. It is summed up in six simple words from Romans 13:14: Make no provision for the flesh.

Make No Provision is the daily devotional for Christian men who want to conquer porn biblically. Each devotional is short, practical, scriptural, and blunt.

Victory over sexual sin requires devotion to Christ plus daily action. The title of the book comes from the command in Romans 13:14 to "Put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts."

The author wrote this book one day at a time over the space of a year to keep him on the path of sexual purity, and to inspire Christian brothers to gain and maintain victory in this area. Pornography is a cancer in the church. It wrecks lives, marriages and families, and the careers of church leaders. The author's prayer is that these daily meditations educate, encourage, challenge and inspire you to defeat pornography daily, biblically.

How this book is different from typical resources

1. Biblical focus: Most workshops, 12-step recovery programs and other resources aimed at Christian men take an addiction-focused approach. They cast the sinner as a victim, describe his sexual immorality as an addiction, and speak in the language of recovery, not repentance. This book tackles sexual sin head-on with biblical admonitions to repent, seek the Lord's forgiveness, and obey the many Scriptural commands to avoid sexual sin.

2. Daily focus: This book is a daily devotional, intended to be read along with your Bible during your daily quiet time with the Lord. It is not a one-and-done workshop, or a once-a-week-for-infinity 12-step program. Instead, it offers daily education, biblical teaching, reproof where needed, and encouragement to press on to sexual purity. After all, sexual purity is something you achieve daily.

At its core, pornography is a heart issue. A heart that enjoys looking at porn is a heart set against God. The act of looking at porn and the act of masturbation are simply outward manifestations of an inward rot. After all, adultery and sexual immorality, according to Jesus, start in the heart (Matthew 15:19-20).

If you want to quit porn, you must quit biblically. If you want to be free of watching porn, you must opt for a biblical solution. Because pornography is a sin issue. And sin issues require biblical remedies. The Bible has a great deal to say about sexual immorality (its source, its consequences, its remedy, and more). And the Bible also promises that God has given you and me "all things that pertain to life and godliness" (2 Peter 1:3). The Bible tells us how to quit porn, when, and why. And God gives us the divine power we need to live godly lives.

Porn blocking software has its place. Recovery groups have their place. But the guaranteed way to quit porn is to quit God's way. The sure way to gain, and maintain, victory over sexual sin is to follow God's instructions on the topic. Every tactic you employ in your battle for sexual purity should have a biblical foundation.

God doesn't want you to struggle alone, and He doesn't want you to fight without a proven path to victory. He describes that path in His word, the Bible. It's up to you to follow it. Learn how by reading Make No Provision daily.
