Riding a Dead Horse: Carousel to Hell
Tom Buford
Tommera Press
In his book Riding a Dead Horse: Carousel to Hell, Tom Buford writes, "It was a long, hard journey. It was a journey I would not wish on anyone. It was a senseless trip that I pray no one else will ever have to take."
The journey Buford speaks about his journey into pornography addiction and sexual perversion. Sadly, many have taken that same journey.
In 1996, 33 percent of men responding at eight different Promise Keepers conferences agreed with the statement that they "enjoy looking at sexually oriented material" and 16 percent had "purchased pornographic material in the past year." (Source: Ken R. Canfield, president, National Center for Fathering)
With so many men dealing with pornography, Buford's book provides a timely look into a growing problem.
Buford chronicles his years as a pornography addict and journeys into homosexuality. He writes candidly without going into graphic details that would not benefit the reader. In no way does the author try to bring any glory to his sin.
The book gives answers to pornography addicts, pointing them to Christ. While the book deals specifically with pornography, Buford's wise counsel could be applied with many types of addictions.
The author clearly shows that pornography is not a victimless crime. Much of the book deals with Buford's addiction nearly destroying his marriage with his wife Mera.
Our prayer should be that many pornography addicts will read Buford's book and learn where to get the keys to freedom.
The book also would be an excellent read for family and friends of pornography addicts since it gives insight into what drives people into this perverse sin. Spouses especially would gain from reading Riding a Dead Horse.
While the topic of pornography addiction is uncomfortable to speak about, it needs to be addressed. Buford's book does that and does it well.
