Shannon Ethridge's book Every Woman's Battle: Discovering God's Plan for Sexual and Emotional Fulfillment is just one of the Every Man Series you have no doubt seen or heard about. The book contains 12 chapters broken up into 3 parts and a workbook in the back for further study. Basing much of the work off her own struggle for sexual purity, she brings out several key points in her book that I particularly liked. men are not the only ones involved in a battle for sexual integrity women may not struggle with pornography to the same degree as men, but some explicit romance novels leave them just as guilty women need to guard their minds and emotions from leading them down a path into an affair allowing ourselves to compare our husbands with the other men around is a dangerous practice women need to set up boundaries to help protect their marriage God desires a close, personal relationship with every believer - and that is ultimate fulfillment While she had many more "good points," I found it difficult to follow her line of reasoning throughout the book as a whole. I often disagreed with her and sometimes felt her concepts were more pragmatic than Biblical (and maybe even contradicting herself in parts of the book, though not intending to). She wrote in one part of the book about steps to take after realizing you have fallen into an emotional affair. As part of the steps, she never makes it a necessity to confess the sin to your husband. However, later in the book she seems to make it clear that this is a necessary step, at least when confessing sinful relationships that happened before you were married. Again, she never laid the Biblical foundation at the beginning, so it is no wonder that things get a little confusing.
