Freedom from Pornography and Sexual Addiction
Pornography and sexual addiction is a personal struggle for many men. The Catholic sexual integrity program, Restoring God's Foundation, is available online at no cost at
roadtopurity.com.
This program incorporates practical steps for behavioral change, educates users on the addiction, provides guided healing of the brokenness that is at the root of addiction, and implements the sacraments of the Church for a full and in-depth path to freedom.
It is built upon the premise that true freedom from pornography involves addressing four main components:
1. Behavioral
2. Spiritual
3. Chemical
4. Emotional
Overcoming this addiction is more than merely a matter of willpower. It takes trained professionals to guide one through the process. The Restoring God's Foundation course offers that guidance.
It is available online for individuals, or parishes can sponsor live small groups at a reasonable cost paid by the parish. Restoring God's Foundation was developed and reviewed by former addicts, counselors, and clergy. It has been granted the
imprimatur by Archbishop Samuel J. Aquila of Denver.
