Paul W. Saunders Releases THE PRICE OF PROMISCUITY


As a counselor and someone who has been involved in the church ministry since 1972, Paul W. Saunders observed how promiscuity wrecked the lives of those who were entangled in it. Although it is becoming acceptable in cultures around the world to have multiple sex partners, this does not make promiscuity any less risky. According to Deirdre Lee Fitzgerald, PhD, assistant professor of psychology at Eastern Connecticut State University in Willimantic, promiscuity is 'high risk behavior comparable to heavy drinking, gambling and other thrill-seeking ventures.' Aside from the physical and emotional consequences of promiscuous behavior, there are spiritual and moral costs involved. Saunders examines these effects in his book, 'The Price of Promiscuity,' and shares insights on how to break free from a devastating cycle of sin.
