Because we so strongly believe that the PROVEN™ model will benefit anyone truly willing to do whatever it takes to have lasting victory over sexual sins and because we have such a great burden for seeing renewed and transformed lives, we are not charging a set price for the materials prepared by our ministry.

You can request a free copy of any of the following materials by simply sending us an email with your mailing address. (Some of the items may even be downloaded onto your computer.) We'll deliver them to you by second day Priority Mail as soon as we get your email.

Of course, because we are a non-profit ministry, we hope that you will desire to make a generous donation. We will use your tax-deductible gift to further the ministry, such as preparing additional materials, making materials available to those who cannot afford them, and training leaders in ministering to those ensnared by the grip of sexually compulsive behaviors.

12-week Daily Study on Breaking Free From Bondage to Pornography, Masturbation, Lust, and Fantasy.

Our 12-week workbook study, named Striving for Absolute Purity, is the hallmark of our ministry because it seeks to guide people not simply away from sexual sins, but into a dependant relationship with the Lord whereas the underlying desire for purity outweighs the selfishness and pride that keeps a person in bondage to sexual sins.

Breaking free from the grip of pornography, fantasy, lust, masturbation or another sexually compulsive activity is one of the hardest struggles you will face in life. Many self-help books and programs teach you how to avoid temptation to lessen your daily struggle. However, they don't provide lasting relief because they are based upon your strength and abilities. In fact, consider what the Bible has to say on this topic:

Since you died with Christ to the basic principles of this world, why, as though you still belong to it, do you submit to its rules: "Do not handle! Do not taste! Do not Touch!" These are all destined to perish with use, because they are based on human commands and teachings. Such regulations indeed have an appearance of wisdom, with their self-imposed worship, their false humility and their harsh treatment of the body, but they lack any value in restraining sensual indulgences.

Colossians 2:20-23.

This biblically-based study is very intense in terms of time and soul searching. We suggest that you devote at least 50 minutes a day. The study is structured to incorporate each of the characteristics of the PROVEN acronym into your daily life. Although the study is only 12 weeks long, it is designed to give you a sure foundation and setting you on the lifetime path of healing. It also is designed to be repeated one of more times over the year and suggests other Bible-based studies to move you through the first hard year.

Accountability: Why and How

There are relatively few books or articles outlining the Biblical basis for accountability partners. Because people trapped in bondage to sexual sins are substituting false forms of intimacy, such as pornography or masturbation, and many experience sharp pains of guilt or shame, most are reluctant to link up with another when fighting to break free. Unfortunately, this solo approach almost always fails. The reason we have place this short article in our bookstore is to highlight the importance pursuing accountability relationships.

The short article may be downloaded below. It explains the Biblical basis for accountability and how to accomplish it. The goal is to spur you on to pushing through the discomfort of being open and vulnerable in order to allow the Lord to use others in your life to bring lasting healing.
