You were made for greatness—but the culture around you is trying to convince you otherwise. The permissive sexual wisdom of our time has failed. In a world hijacked by half-truths about freedom, love, and masculinity, young men are caught in a battle for their hearts. The good news: You don’t have to settle for addiction, shame, or mediocrity. You were made for more.
This is your field manual for the fight ahead—a clear, practical, roadmap to authentic masculinity and self-mastery. Drawing on timeless wisdom and real-world pastoral experience, Fr. Carter Griffin offers tried-and-true tactics to understand the battlefield, break free from cycles of shame and addiction, lead a more flourishing life, and rediscover the joy of loving as God intended.
Fr. Carter Griffin is the Rector of St. John Paul II Seminary in Washington, DC. Raised Presbyterian, he converted to Catholicism while attending Princeton University. He then served as a Naval Officer before entering the seminary. After completing his doctorate and serving at St. Peter’s parish on Capitol Hill, in 2011 Fr. Griffin was appointed to the newly established St. John Paul II Seminary. He is the author of several books including Cross-Examined: Catholic Responses to the World’s Questions as well as Forming Families, Forming Saints.

Fr. Carter Griffin’s Reclaimed is a powerful field manual for the spiritual battle for chastity. This book is both a call to courage and a roadmap to genuine joy, making it an indispensable guide for anyone seeking purity of heart in today’s world.
This book captures everything I would want to say (and more) to a young man in the battle for purity of heart. Like Matt Fradd’s and Jason Evert’s Forged, it covers many areas of combat, but the reader also leaves with a crystal-clear understanding of what chastity IS: the real benefits of it, how it has been hijacked, and a visual for what it looks like to truly live out this virtue.
In a culture that often confuses freedom with sexual license, this book offers a timely reminder of the power of self-mastery. With clarity and compassion, Fr. Griffin describes chastity not as an oppressive restriction, but as a path to integrity, true freedom and an ability to truly give of oneself utilizing both natural and supernatural means. Whether you're seeking guidance, renewal, or simply a deeper understanding of holy purity, this book is a compelling read.
