Addiction Ministry

Sexual addiction is a serious problem in which one engages in persistent and escalating patterns of sexual behavior despite increasing negative consequences to one's self or others. Like other addictions, these behaviors continue despite sincere and persistent efforts to stop. Some might not think sex can be addictive because there are no chemicals involved. However, the body produces many hormones and neurotransmitters during sex that produce the same chemical "high" as drugs or alcohol. Sex addicts, like other addicts, often have a background of other addictions or family histories sprinkled with numerous addictions.

This permissive society makes the road to sexual addiction very smooth. In the Christian man’s life , this style of living will render him completely defeated. But a person must come to that jumping-off point where they realize there is nothing they can do to save themselves and only total surrender of their life and will to God will suffice. We now know that we have never been in control and never will be. There is no need for regret because this is what brought us to the feet of Christ. We own our sins and acknowledge them to Him.

In a Pure Life weekly support group we believe in the power of Christ to change our lives when we surrender our life to Him. The Pure Life support group is a sanctuary to those who are in need; a place where a person can be safe in the knowledge that he is among friends and equals who care for him.

The Pure Life Support Group is a safe place to grow in God's love and grace and to learn about His plan for purity.
