Book excerpt: Andrew Comiskey, founder of Desert Stream/Living Waters Ministries for those struggling sexually, shares here his profound experience in moving from brokenness (including same-sex desires) to a healthy and renewed Christian life. The Church's clear, powerful teachings on marriage and family helped him control his passions and live a sexually integrated life. With candor and grace, Comiskey recounts real-life stories of people who were freed from the grip of sexual disorders. You'll see how darkness is dispelled in those who seek the presence of the Crucified Christ and how they gained control over their physical, emotional, and psychological sins. In page after page, you will learn to accept the person God created you to be and celebrate authentic human dignity. You will also discover how: The Holy Eucharist is our remedy for impurity that fortifies us in the battle for holiness, The Cross of Christ helps us to carry little crosses and love others with an undivided heart, Persons pursuing religious vocations can integrate their sexuality, We need strong relationships in the community of believers to avoid occasions of sin, "Spiritual chastity" is important in forming personalism and sexual chastity, Divine Mercy provides the secret to restoring authentic intimacy in Christ, Additionally, Comiskey highlights how to live chastely in marriage and how the gift of self to one's spouse reflects the gift of Christ's sacrifice for His Bride, the Church. He further evaluates the crisis in the priesthood and how celibacy points to Heaven and the resurrection of the body. Book jacket.
