Free Book Download! Surfing for God: Discovering the Divine Desire Beneath Sexual Struggle

Last Updated: April 5, 2024

In a world where there are 68 million searches for pornography every day and where over 70% of Christian men report viewing porn in the last year, it’s no surprise that more and more men struggle with pornography.

How can you or your organization get equipped for the battle with pornography?

Thomas Nelson Publishing is giving away (yes, totally free) thousands of digital copies of Surfing for God, by Michael John Cusick, founder of Restoring the Soul.

Download the book right now, then share the link with someone else. (First come, first served. This is only available for a limited time.)

Surfing for God is a life-changing book and has been critically acclaimed by dozens of Christian leaders and authors. After reading Surfing for God, bestselling author John Eldredge wrote, “This book will set you free. The process Michael describes here works—I’ve seen it happen with many men. That’s why you should read this book. Then give it to every man you know.”

Even if you don’t have a Kindle, you can read a digital book on a PC/Mac, SmartPhone, iPad, or other tablets with B&N Nook, Sony Reader, Calibre, Adobe Digital Editions, Stanza Desktop, Mobipocket Reader Desktop, or Okular. (The free book is available as an EPUB, PDF, or MOBI file. Get more information about EPUB here.)

    Can we still get a free copy of Surfing for God?

    • I don’t think so, no. That offer expired a while ago.

  2. TM

    Looking for the free pdf of Surfing for God. Help I need to know what the prayer is and I downloaded the audio book from audible.com but there was no accompanying pdf book.

    In Christ.

    • Not sure what it is, TM. This was a limited time offer.

    Is there other Surfing for God free download link? Seems the nelson.free link do not provide free download anymore.

    Can anyone please provide other links or perhaps send me a copy? nicerthan_dark31@yahoo.com.ph

    Thanks much!

    GET THIS BOOK. I bought it for iBook on my iPhone.

    Is it safe to say: Sin Isn’t WHAT your doing (though pornography is bad), it’s WHY you’re doing it. You don’t trust God’s promises, you know better than God does what’s right for your life, you have to be in control. You have leaned away from God and are no longer aligned toward God.

    You are drinking from the broken cistern from the putrid waters of pornography – false promises. We need to drink from the perfect cistern and the crystal clear waters – true (God) promises.

    GET THIS BOOK (did I already say that?)

    – Chad

    • Luke Gilkerson

      The page says they will send a link via e-mail, but I would contact the publisher to get your question answered: NelsonFree@ThomasNelson.com

    Applied for the free download this morning, but never got the email with the link.

    • Luke Gilkerson

      Only I know that might have gone wrong: (1) you didn’t fill out your e-mail address correctly, or (2) the e-mail message went to a junk or spam folder. You could always e-mail NelsonFree@ThomasNelson.com to see if they can help you.
