Praise for Clean
Far too many men are compromising their purity and forfeiting their God-given power to finish well. Why? The enemy is vehemently attacking Gods original plan for our sexuality. In this book, my friend Dr. Doug Weiss expertly exposes the enemys tactics and arms you to fight back. Men, its time to take a stand. Its time to come clean.

and speaker, Messenger

As I see it, the substance of this book provides four things: (1) a forthright, God-fashioned Sword-of-Truth that will bring freedom to men who seek sexual fulfillment without compromising sexual purity; (2) a handbook for continuing wholeness of mind, soul, and body that will build husbands who love their wives, honor their families, and are successful in their workplaces; (3) a pastoral resource for revival in a local church as the lead pastor lives and leads the men of his flock toward living out its content and growing unto the fruitful life it will unfold; and (4) the seeds of potentially recoverable single and married people who are mired in the muck of a society drenched with sexual confusion, corruption and condemnation. There are revivals in this book; renewal for individuals, congregations, communities andmay God grant ita nation!

In our church we have been ministering to men caught in sexual addiction for over ten years. What I like about Doug, and what I love about Clean is that it isnt just more theory. Its filled with practical, usable tools for men who desire to live in victory and sexual integrity! Read it. Practice it. You will find the help you need.

Clean is going to change anyone outside or inside the Church struggling with sexual addictions. This book is a breath of fresh air as it gives practical tools to help men and woman overcome the sexual addiction epidemic from a biblical perspective. You will understand what sexual addiction is and how to overcome it. Clean will give you hope when you thought you had none. My testimony is evidence that these principles you are holding really work.

Dr. Doug Weiss has done it again. Gathering from his own story and the account of others, he has parlayed his counseling experience into an exceptional tool to help you walk clean. As a pastor, husband, and father, I know firsthand the necessity for victory in this area, without which the American church will become ineffective in bringing healing to the home.

Dr. Doug Weiss has walked the walk, talked the talk, and is beckoning our nation to stand up with him in victory and come clean. This resource offers men, marriages, families, and churches, the hope, encouragement, practical tools, and how to necessary to be victorious after they have been devastated, silenced, torn apart, and destroyed as a result of breaches in sexual integrity. I highly recommend Clean as a timely, empowering resource for men, spouses, pastors, and leaders, with proven biblical strategies for sexual integrity.

Sexual sin can be overcome. Doug Weiss shows us biblical teachings that guide us to a new life as we walk with God. I have seen the results using his work, now let us go do HIS work.

No one has walked the walk for over 25 years and is able to talk the talk as well as Doug Weiss. His insight and deep revelations are the reward for his commitments and a treasure of wisdom for each of us desiring to be clean.

As a pastor and marriage counselor I have seen the devastation that sexual compromise and addiction can cause for men, women, families, and churches. There is not a more qualified individual than Dr. Doug Weiss to equip believers and churches to overcome this insidious evil. This book is a fantastic resource that I hope every believer reads and every church uses to address this issue.
Jimmy Evans, founder
and CEO, MarriageToday
Doug Weiss speaks biblical, commonsense truth to the hearts of men and helps us to see all women through the eyes of God rather than our own selfish eyes. I know so many men who have wrestled for years with how to become clean in the area of their sexuality, and Doug has developed a vital resource to help men discover the freedom that is theirs because of the grace of God. Its time to stop hiding and start to get clean!

Over many decades millions of people have struggled and continuously lose the battle for their sexual integrity. Many who have been celebrated as public successes have ended up on the floor defeated as private failures. As a result many families and reputations have been tragically destroyed. Over the last 25 years, my friend Doug Weiss (a former victim himself) has fought and won the battle for sexual purity. In this book Clean, he shares time-tested and proven strategies of how to reclaim our lives, families, and churches back from the enemys stronghold.
