Book Description

June 18, 2004
Overcoming lust is a process that requires diligent focus and accountability from others— and this in-depth guide helps establish both. It’s designed for a variety of settings, from one-on-one accountability partnerships to Sunday school classes. Not Even a Hint made the statement that lust is a human problem and that Jesus can free anyone from its power. Going further, this gender-specific study guide features study questions and discussion starters that directly address the unique temptations women face. This resource is a must-have for women challenged to defeat lust and celebrate purity in their own lives.

Head: Lust is not just a guy problem

Based on the bestselling message, Not Even a Hint, Joshua and Shannon Harris offer a companion study guide specifically designed to address the issues women face. For use in a personal or group setting, this in-depth guide is a tool to help you apply the principles found in Not Even A Hint as you go further on your journey to holiness.

Each of the ten small-group sessions includes : Easy Review: A quick chapter summary makes review simple. Discussion Questions: Questions that serve as ice breakers, and then lead to deeper discussion and personal application. Accountability Follow-Up: Questions to help check each other’s progress in a truthful and caring setting. Meditate and Memorize: Key Scriptures that will help women gain victory over lust. Custom-Tailored Action Plan: Women will be led in a step-by-step formulation of an Action Plan, uniquely tailored to combat their specific battles.

Story Behind the Book

After Josh gave a message on lust entitled "Lust: Destroy It or Be Destroyed" (which was originally prepared for an all-male audience), he was surprised by the widespread request from women to be allowed to listen to a tape of the message. They heard the guys talking about the message and wanted it for themselves. And not because they wanted to "understand men," but because they too struggled with lust. "Ladies deal with this, too," they told him. "We often feel like something is wrong with us and so we never bring it out in the open, which only makes it worse."

So after much prayer and counsel, he decided to make his book for both sexes. Though Not Even a Hint is written for men and women, he strongly believe’s that the topic of lust is not appropriate for men and women to discuss. Women should find other women they can work together with to fight the sin of lust, which is why we’ve created separate study guides for men and women to take you further on the journey to holiness.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for bible study, January 10, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Not Even a Hint: A Study Guide for Women (Paperback)
This product was great for Bible study and helped us facilitate a group setting with both guys and girls. We were able to read Scripture together, and then separated to read the study guide questions that related to the chapter in the book. Very well written. The product was lightly used, but it was easy to overlook given the content. It was delivered in timely fashion, and was packaged well. Thank you!

3.0 out of 5 stars Treating the symptoms, July 26, 2011
This review is from: Not Even a Hint: A Study Guide for Women (Paperback)
I've been doing a lot of thinking & praying on purity lately for this generation. I thought I'd see what I could get out of this book & what I got was Advil for headaches, when there is a brain tumor that needs to be addressed. We can keep popping pills all we want but eventually we're going to have to go to the doctor to find the source of the headaches & take bigger steps towards healing so that we don't struggle with headaches anymore. I'm not going to dog on this book because I believe it will help a lot of men & women that struggle with lust but I do want to share a few thoughts. (referencing Matthew 6)

(33)"Seek you first the Kingdom of God, & His righteousness(virtue); & all these things will be added onto you."
This passage has a lot of great & liberating implications.
-First & foremost [seeking first the Kingdom of God & His righteousness;] Seeking His face, His ways, His plan/will, HIM! This is what we are told to do.
It doesn't say that we are to seek to be pure, it doesn't say to seek celibacy, it doesn't say to seek help or even strength to resist temptation but to seek GOD FIRST!
Jesus just finished telling his audience that we cannot serve two masters, & then in verse 31 it says some interesting things to them. "So do not worry, saying, What shall we eat? or What shall we drink? or What shall we wear? for the pagans run after all these things, & your heavenly Father knows that you need them." Then verse 33 then goes on to say "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of it's own."
Here he says that he does not want us to spend every waking moment of the day worrying if we are lusting or not. . .
Now it's not ok to just lust & not worry about anything but there needs to be a heart change, a change of mindset.

Second this passage says that "ALL THESE THINGS will be added to you!" God knows what we need; He knows exactly who we are. He longs to give us what we need but we get distracted asking for all the wrong things. We might be asking that God help us resist temptation when what we really need is to start seeing men/women in the way that God sees them which would automatically change our struggle. God has said a lot about His burden being light & His yoke being easy. He calls us to freedom in Him! There has to be something better that He has in store for us. Us not being able to go anywhere or watch any movies come from fear that we might mess up & have a lustful thought. This is living in complete fear & condemnation & our God is very much against that. Ask God for more of Him & to understand His ways & that His thoughts become our thoughts.
Just some thoughts. . . God Bless!
