Begin the journey of recovery from sexual addiction!
Let's start now on a twelve-step path that will lead us out of inappropriate sexual behaviors into the restoration of life. In the Life Recovery Workbook for Sexual Integrity, discover real-life stories of fellow travelers, great questions for individual or group discussion, and a Bible-centered approach to freedom. Twelve beautiful blessings await after our hard work on the journey of recovery from sexual addiction.
• Step 1: Open our hearts to God's power to free us from the grip of unhealthy sexual behaviors. "O God, please strengthen me just one more time." (Judges 16:28).
• Step 2: Allow God to restore our sexual sanity. "Who can bring purity out of an impure person?" (Job 14:4).
• Step 3: Submit to God in order to be freed from the bondage of life-stealing addiction. "If you give up your life for me, you will find it." (Matthew 10:39).
• Step 4: Self-examination leads us out of addiction. "You showed that you have done everything necessary to make things right." (2 Corinthians 7:11).
• Step 5: Experience the healing that begins with mutual confession. "Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed." (James 5:16).
• Step 6: Get ready for God to heal us from addictive sexual behaviors. "You will not reject a broken and repentant heart, O God." (Psalm 51:17).
• Step 7: Invite God to remove our sexual shortcomings. "I restore the crushed spirit of the humble and revive the courage of those with repentant hearts." (Isaiah 57:15).
• Step 8: Create a list of people our unwise sexual behavior adversely affected. "Now, however, it is time to forgive." (2 Corinthians 2:7).
• Step 9: Restore relationships damaged by our sexual sins and experience a clean slate. "But then they turn from their sins and do what is just and right." (Ezekiel 33:14).
• Step 10: Review daily the defects in us that hinder healthy life with God and others. "So get rid of all the filth and evil in your lives." (James 1:21).
• Step 11: Grow closer to God through prayer and meditation. "Teach me how to live, O Lord." (Psalm 27:11).
• Step 12: Bless others with the blessing of healing from habitual sexual sin. "He will give a crown of beauty for ashes." (Isaiah 61:3).
