Get Off My Porch! is the story of my marriage with a sex addict. Sexual addiction is destroying relationships and families at an alarming rate. The secular world will stop at nothing to contribute to this disorder because sex sells. I personally consider it to be an epidemic and a topic that is rarely discussed openly. Satan is very busy tearing apart what God has joined together. Even children are being exposed to sexual content through electronics, and parents need to be vigilant about protecting them. If you're reading this, I know you're hurting, but please remember that no one chooses to be an addict. There is help and there is hope. You can't move forward with an injured heart.

Getting off the Porch is an intimate portrayal of mastering self-love, managing unspoken expectations, and maneuvering the ups, downs, mess-ups, and clean ups of life. Each chapter exposes why and how Alicia almost lost herself and the courageous process she endured to not only turn things around, but live her life beyond the porch.
