Illusions

By Wanda B. Campbell

Book Overview

After three years of marriage, Denise Hightower discovers her husband, Pastor Bryce Hightower, is addicted to pornography. Pastor Hightower's subsequent denial and casual attitude toward his addiction jeopardizes not only his marriage, but impairs his ability to effectively preach the gospel.

Following the biased advice of her mother and yielding to pressure from her husband, Denise agrees to keep his addiction a secret, although her self-esteem plummets. Denise's life as the perfect First Lady unravels following the revelation of a family secret and betrayal at the hands of her best friend.

Self-centered and determined to uphold his pastoral image, Bryce is oblivious to his wife's emotional state. Convinced that he can overcome his "little problem" on his own, he rejects the spiritual help God sends him. It's only after Pastor Hightower is confronted with the addiction by a parishioner that he comes clean with himself, God, and his congregation.
