Carl Thomas knows what it's like to feel trapped by crushing shame. He's a former porn addict who's been helping others find freedom for over 10 years. Carl is an ordained pastor, certified Neuro Health Coach, CEO of XXXchurch.com, and creator of the Live Free Community app.Carl's passion for helping individuals find freedom, peace, and purpose is only matched by his New Jersey directness, love for family, devotion to Philadelphia sports teams, and infatuation with his white Jeep Wrangler.
When Shame Gets Real is for people seeking a remedy from the painful experience of sexual shame. Carl's book can help you move beyond a mere desire to outgrow a behavior and into the stories and dynamics that reinforce it. Let this book support your journey to freedom through guiding you to disarm the debilitating power of shame. -JAY STRINGER, Psychotherapist and author of Unwanted: How Sexual Brokenness Reveals our Way to Healing This shouldn't be rocket science, but somehow the church has forgotten--you can't cure shame by feeding shame. And so Carl Thomas doesn't just pull back the curtain on shame around porn and masturbation; he yanks the curtain down, rips it to shreds, and burns it. And it's about time! -SHEILA WRAY GREGOIRE, author of The Great Sex Rescue and podcaster and blogger at Bare Marriage
