Book excerpt: Many marriages are difficult, especially when the union is comprised of two very different broken people living in a broken world. When alcoholism is added to the equation, marriage becomes even more challenging. Still, no matter how often we pray about it or wish for it, positive change does not happen overnight. It takes unconditional love, patience, and grace for our spouses and ourselves to ultimately heal and move forward into a new chapter. In an inspirational guide, Ruth Ann Boaz draws on her faith-filled experiences living with alcoholics to share tools and resources that help Christian wives navigate through the daily chaos caused by addiction, realize that divorce is not the only option, and find peace even if their spouse never stops drinking. In addition to detailing her personal story, Ruth offers insight into why it is so difficult for an alcoholic to admit he has an addiction, why it is important for wives to give their controlling nature a break and realize they also have an addiction, how to find healing and forgiveness, and how to make big decisions. Included are journal prompts that encourage personal growth. Wives over Addiction provides tools, personal stories, and resources to help Christian wives of alcoholics lean on hope, faith, and love to find peace throughout their daily challenges.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It didn't matter how many people said he was no good for her, she couldn't see it! She didn't see destructive, she saw his pain. She didn't see addiction, she saw his shame. She didn't see selfishness, she saw him trying to grab onto anything tangible. When others looked at him they saw a loser drug head that proved himself time after time that he'd never change. When she looked at him, she saw a man Jesus was murdered to save. They saw his foolishness and she saw her babies dad. They saw demons and she saw redemption. Maybe the fact that she was once wretched too made it easier for her to trust that reckless love was enough. Or maybe the fact that she had already escaped from a real demon before had everything to do with why she could see the truth in his eyes buried behind all of the lies. Any stranger on the street wouldn't care to fight for his life or any addict's life for that matter and perhaps that's why it takes seeing through the eyes of a wife to believe no matter how ugly one soul could be that Jesus came to set EVERY. SINGLE. captive free.

Are you feeling shocked, betrayed, devastated, and downright angry after discovering your husband is addicted to pornography?

Prevalent substances of abuse are examined, as are issues facing special populations.

Book excerpt: Just like all of you I've had some adversities in life. I've struggled with my marriage to a porn addict for almost twenty-three years and even longer with my relationship and trust with Jesus. I have made some decisions that have been good; while others have been "Really, what were you thinking?" kind of mistakes. But God said, "Cindy, seek me with your whole heart!" And for me to do that, He has had to knock me to my knees repeatedly and, at times, hit me upside the head to get my stubborn hardened hearts attention. However, through all this, He has shown me what kind of life I can have if I would just submit to His will. Jeremiah 29:11, "For I ALONE know the plans I have for you. And His I Wills." In Ezekiel 36:22-36 these are His promises for my life that I stand on. "I will take out your stony heart!" Satan has tried to steal, kill, and destroy me, my marriage, love, and any hope of a future. But God's goal... to give me a future, He says," I will bring people to you for their ruins to be rebuilt." He had a plan for my life, to use my adversities to bring healing to others who suffer like I once suffered. As for me now, I am finally able to give thanks and praise for that once Unintended Journey has now lead me to my Intended Journey with God and my husband.

Book excerpt: In Women and Substance Abuse: Gender Transparency you’ll see what can be done to aid women in some of the world’s hardest hit substance abuse hubs, including Rio De Janeiro, Brazil; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; and New Haven, Connecticut. Filled with timely research and practical solutions, this volume shows you what you can do to aid the tremendous and immediate need for specialized interventions in the lives of women. Women and Substance Abuse considers many of the variables in the lives of women who abuse drugs--race, choice of drug, HIV risk, and drug treatment history--and gives you line-by-line proof of the need for custom-tailored harm reduction strategies for addicted women who are and who aren’t engaged in drug treatment therapy. In addition, you’ll see why frequent cocaine use, current physical and sexual abuse, and concerns relating to children can alter the success of therapies and treatments. Overall, this unique volume will broaden your understanding of the subject by covering: gender differences in risk for gonorrhea infection risk factors for women who trade sex for drugs and money the role of physicians and prenatal care providers of substance abusing women how drug treatment programs can be more multifacted to include planning, prenatal care, and parenting skills prison-based therapeutic communities long-term residential treatment for women with children, pregnant women, and women without children For every unique woman with a drug problem, there is a unique treatment. Women and Substance Abuse turns away from the lost cause of blanket treatments and takes you into the world’s slums and inner-city ghettoes, where the faces of addiction are as diverse as the women who bear its debilitating burdens. You’ll see women’s drug addiction for what it is--a montage of suffering and pain that only individual and specialized care can cure.
