    I’ve not been able to put down Every Young Man’s Battle. I have even been yelled at for reading it when I was supposed to be going to sleep! How ironic!  But the Lord is getting a hold of me with His loving but ever-present hand.  Already, I can actually sit down and read and pray without feeling like a hypocrite!  I can finally say, “I am free from the bondage of sin” and not be lying!  Praise God!
    I can’t wait until I begin reading the follow-up books, Tactics and Hero!  I can only imagine how much more the Lord will change me through these great resources. I pray that I can use these books around my school to further the gospel.  The book has changed me and made me go from hypocrite to genuine Christian, and it’s only been three days!  I know I can use these books to reach the lost.
    Thank you for actually putting your reputation on the line to write these books for people like me.  I know the God has used you in more than just my life, and I am sure that He will greatly reward you for simply obeying Him and spreading His sin-freeing power! I am forever grateful!

          As a sixteen-year-old, I’d have to say the book Every Young Man’s Battle was possibly the best book I’ve ever read. The suggestions you put in it, the practical ways to avoid thinking the wrong way, and the guide to using the armor of God effectively have completely changed my thought process about my sexuality. I no longer struggle with impure thoughts, or try to find boundaries around masturbation just because I want some way for it to be biblically okay. As the leader of my youth group’s praise band, I experienced one of the closest connections with God during the songs as I have ever felt after reading this book. My mind is so much purer, my heart burns with more of a passion, my girlfriend and I couldn’t be any closer and I have so much more potential in having my relationship with God absolutely flourish. Everything you suggested really works, unbelievably so. Thank you so much for everything. It changed my life.
