Publisher Description:
Addiction's First Casualty is God's Character Men who indulge compulsive addictions for any length of time not only suffer from delusion about their own identity and condition, but they turn God into an insensitive, unrealistic, brick-counting Pharaoh. Whatever their flavor of addiction has been--drugs, alcohol, pornography, gambling, gluttony, or something else--and whatever physical, biochemical, emotional, spiritual, or generational factors ushered them down that dark path, they all share one common factor: they concluded early on that God was a "hard man." They decided their reality was populated with unconquerable appetites, desires, lusts, temptations, and pressures that God was simply unable or unwilling to address. A critical element of recovery, therefore, is to begin thinking rightly about God's character. This reflective book helps men in recovery replace the harsh, demanding "God" of their addicted imaginations with the Father of Mercies.
