resources_book1The purpose of this book is to provide first person accounts from three men who have sexually offended. Rarely are such revealing glimpses provided into how and why, from their vantage point, they responded or reacted as they did.

The explanations are careful to avoid rationalizing past behavior but seek to rather recount how they were thinking at the time of their offending behavior. Their ability to be honest and direct about very personal and sensitive issues is a tribute to their commitment to their healing journeys. The hope of the writers is their sharing will assist others, abuse survivors and those who have offended, to find their way toward a healing journey.
