Friends in the Bedroom But Strangers in Church

More about the book

This is a true story about a woman who struggled through an adulterous relationship with a man for six years. What began as unexplained teenager attraction and youthful curiosity, carried into her adult life where it resurfaced again, only to consume her and eventually spiral out of control. This candid story exposes an underlying dilemma that exists within the Church. It reveals the life experience of a professed Christian woman who convinced herself that a unique friendship outside of God's marital design was her destined path. Over time, the intrinsic connection became intimate. Both parties acknowledged the relationship was based on curiosity and infatuation; yet, despite her Christian upbringing and foundation, their negotiation and illicit justification spanned beyond two decades. What begins as lust of the eye can lead to negative complex ramifications when we allow ourselves to bargain with the enemy as this couple did. Still, her story is not unique. It is a revelation to readers who identify with her battle. Hers is a testimony of God's forgiveness, yet, a reminder that His transformation rarely comes without struggle. Despite disillusionment, this woman's life had reached rock bottom. Fortunately, she was introduced to therapeutic healing. Through professional intervention, she was guided toward completeness and righteousness according to God's Word.
